  1. Well they’re correct about it being a show I’m not watching. The “best” bit remains up in the air.

  2. Loved the first season but haven’t gotten to the second yet. I’ll check it out soon.

  3. I couldn’t get into the first season. I thought the acting was terrible. The scenes where they are in clubs, the Japanese actors all looked like they were over acting, or hyper stylizing their scenes … maybe it was just the style of acting, but it all looked rather silly and posed.

  4. Waiting for it to finish to binge it all. Season 1 was great

  5. Love this show, but years in between seasons are not doing shows like this any favors for keeping audiences

  6. They should get rid of the journalism or make it the side subplot.

  7. Wtf I didn’t even know it came back I’ve been waiting for years for this show to come back

  8. Read the book so long ago, obviously the TV show would bear little semblance to it

    But the reviews werent great for the first season so never checked it out. In fact some were decidedly kinda bad

  9. Great show, but season one had a way more compelling plot imo. I find myself getting distracted this time in ways I didn’t with the first.

    As usual, night time Japan is just plain gorgeous.

  10. I’d love to watch it however I cant support max, hope they license it out to Netflix like warrior then I’ll jump on.

  11. I forgot about this show. Even forgot which streaming channels it’s on.

    HBO MAX

  12. I couldn’t make it through season one I lost interest after a couple episodes

  13. I literally couldn’t remember anything about how the first season ended when this one started. It desperately needed a “previously on”.

  14. Well.. I’m not watching it because I thought season 1 was kinda bad.. Has it improved?

  15. I didn’t know the 2nd series was out. First was class!

  16. Question: I’ve been watching on IPTV (just started) by selecting VOD (video on demand) and selecting ENGLISH version then season/episode…

    No subtitles available

    Which majority is in Japanese …

    Any suggestions to have subtitles?

  17. if you think i’m watching that weirdo ansel egort man…..

  18. I just couldn’t stay awake during the first few episodes so I gave up. This happens to me with most shows to be honest

  19. Rewatching season one and recently finished the book.

    Great series with a film noir type of feeling and a 90’s aesthetic

  20. Yeah but then I’d have to look at Hansel Gretgort’s face…

  21. tokyo vice was too campy. watching some 18 year old run around a foreign city fighting 3-4 mobsters at a time and getting the boss’ girlfriend to fall in love w him w no repercussions.
