Synopsis:

The ninth unit of the Sushi Police operates under a strict mandate: to safeguard the integrity of traditional sushi across the globe. This specialized task force relentlessly pursues establishments deemed to violate established culinary norms, driven by a fervent dedication to preserving Japan's food culture. Their worldwide travels bring them into contact with Sara, a determined reporter investigating potential improprieties within the World Food-Culture Conservation Organization, which funds their operations.

As the Sushi Police attempt to uncover the truth behind Sara’s inquiries, a complex dynamic emerges. Her resourcefulness challenges the unit's unwavering principles, hinting at a deeper, perhaps unsettling purpose behind their mission. The series explores themes of cultural preservation and justice through a unique lens, prompting questions about tradition, authority, and the potential consequences of zealous enforcement.
