Loved it loved it loved
All loose ends tied up perfect pacing you felt the pressure and tension
But it never felt rushed
Only had ONE ISSUE
the source of the FBI leak story. Didn't like that he just made up with one friend now he got beef with the other. I get it its fine. But maybe I would have had that be still a question for now or at least the audience kinda nows and so dies he but Jake never admits it.
Jake ain't even notice when Mitzaki left.
If this don't get ANY Emmy nominations???
these 2 had great chemistry on screen
If Hollywood doesn't make this guy a damn star?????
If they really want to do Shang Chi and Iron Fist etc?
YOU NEED TO CAST HIM AS A LEAD VILLIAN

Season 3
Episode 9 - 10
Watched these this morning.
Tozawa Ol’ Lady, that broad is made it clear she gonna take his Ass down reminding him where his money is coming from. Hagino her driver is fully loyal to her and is helping her.
Tozawa sent in that killl team to take out Tin-Tin and Sato. Those apprentices with Sato stood up and was loyal with baseball bats against guns. Sato is gonna have to make those cats Made Men now.
Yabuki, I thought that cat was smart enough not to grab the gun on the bed after using a handkerchief to open the door, shit was a clear obvious setup and he took the bait.
Was not expecting Tozawa to go down that quickly, I was expecting him to go out with some one killing him.
Kato made it to Oyabun, I thought it would be awhile for that to happen.
Hopefully we get a season 3.
MAX showed the trailer for a new Asian limited series before the season finale aired.

Thanks for your review. Looking forward to The Sympathizer as well. Gonna have it in the rotation ahead with Sugar, Parish, and Ripley.
Going to finish up the limited series (from 2010) The Pacific tomorrow.

The cats in those White running suits are apprentices.
They just mainly do stupid errand boy shit like cooking, cleaning and laundry, paying their dues and proving their worth/loyaty.
They don’t have access to lethal weapons while in apprenticeship or had any training.

Fingers crossed for a season 3 in the future.
Definitely a well-done sophomore season. If they've got ideas for more of the same ... I'm all for it.
Agreed. When my pops was watching, any time the black suits arrived he'd be like - "Ah man, the guys in the track suits are fucked!"
lol
How ‘Tokyo Vice’ Captured More of Japan’s Capital City on Camera Than Any TV Show Has Before
From "courtesy gifts" for the locals to avoiding run-ins with the yakuza, the team behind Max's neo-noir hit did whatever it took to secure some of the city's most elusive locations: "The only way to work here is to assuage every concern.”

A Eulogy for ‘Tokyo Vice’ With Mina Kimes. Plus, the Case for ‘Presumed Innocent.’
Chris and Mina Kimes also chat about some of their favorite Apple TV+ shows
www.theringer.com
Chris makes the case for the new David E. Kelley show Presumed Innocent, the pulpy courtroom drama the summer needs (1:10). Then he is joined by Mina Kimes to bid goodbye to Tokyo Vice after it was canceled this week after two seasons. They talk about whether or not the show ended in a good place (11:06) and how it really came into its own in the second season (29:14). They end by talking about the comforting middleness of Apple TV+ shows and some of their favorites on the streamer (46:38).

Just finished
Actually loved the ending - AS a series ending. I didn’t think I would as shit started to wrap in maybe even 208 but def throughout 9 and 10… I was concerned lol. But that last scene worked for me.
You don’t fuck off the opportunity when Watanabe-San is anywhere on your call sheet!
