Finished watching Tokyo Swindlers. Do not recommend. If, like me, you made the mistake of watching the first episode and you're a completionist who feels the need to finish what you started, you can make it through the 7 episodes but it does not get better.
Not in a "so bad it's good" way. It's just a thoroughly uncreative show. It's got every cliché trope you can imagine. You can see every twist and turn a mile away if you forgot your glasses at home. If you asked an AI to write a script for "a suspenseful crime drama" it would not be too far off from this.
Wasn't the best thing I've ever watched.

Netflix just sent me some "What to watch now that you've finished Tokyo Swindlers?" spam. I guess they didn't read my review.
@driusan they don’t read your watch history either.
