The narrative explores the complexities of maintaining order in a society grappling with unseen threats, where justice often demands unconventional methods. Hasegawa navigates a world of shadowy figures and escalating crime, balancing his duty to uphold the law with the expectations surrounding his infamous moniker. The series offers a grounded portrayal of societal anxieties and the weight of responsibility carried by those tasked with safeguarding their community, presenting a thoughtful look at morality and the nature of justice in a historical setting.
