Just heads up, the rest of the show gonna drop 2 eps at a time except the finale and Michael Mann did the last two episodes as well. 8 eps total. So we getting whole show this month basically.
Was hoping Mann did more that one ep. This is good news. Seems like a mind Hunter situation.

Also just looked this pedo shyt up. He fukked a 17 year old Twitter thot when he was 20? Big deal

People really trying to cancel him over this? :stopitslime:

This might be THE show this year. I was just thinking how hard it must be to have to learn how to speak japanese for entire scenes and make it sound convincing.

He studied 4 hours a day for a month and now he's fluent.

I need to stop fukking around I've been at it for over a year now and I still can't make my own sentences. :francis:

Mediocre and meandering so far. Feels like a CW/HBO crossover.

Show is 80% aesthetics, if it was set in Scotland instead of Japan it wouldn't get these favorable reviews.

I know the show is set in 1999/2001, but they're also writing like it's 1999 as well. Has all the hallmarks of a white protagonist moving to a black school/neighborhood. The 'dunks vs bapes' convo was less organic than Paul Walker trying to ingratiate himself to Vin Diesel by talking about cars in the first F&F (also 2001 I think :heh:).

Show is filled with over the top, hamfisted combo of tropes from early 2000s and 2020s. The worst of both worlds.

You sure Mann did the last 2? I was on IMDb earlier and only saw him credited with the first.
