Kamoda will do anything to earn a quick buck, even if it means skipping out on his taxes to take his wife on a luxury cruise. But when a random tax audit bankrupts his family, Kamoda soon discovers his wife has taken that cruise after all—only without Kamoda or their daughter Kasumi. Desperate to provide, Kamoda invests in a scheme to mass-produce masks of controversial American presidential candidate Beverly Duncan. But a lackluster election kills their sales potential, burying Kamoda under a mountain of masks and debt. On the verge of despair, Kamoda discovers a sign that leads him to the Director, an art fanatic who vows he can make all of Kamoda and Kasumi’s dreams come true. (Source: VIZ Media)

Read the full take

Kamoda will do anything to earn a quick buck, even if it means skipping out on his taxes to take his wife on a luxury cruise. That is a small, human starting point, and the series builds into a sharper thriller about the cost of greed. The premise is grounded and morally uncomfortable.The strength is the character. Kamoda is a flawed, believable figure, and Urasawa's storytelling gives each twist weight. The tension rises steadily.The weaknesses are clear. The short run leaves some threads brief, and the crime tropes are familiar. Readers wanting a long, expansive story may find it compact.Recommended for readers who enjoy tight, morally grey crime stories. Expect a sharp, compact ride. Its quieter moments reward readers who give it time.
