The Naked Director

!!!! Delicious Sapporo Bento !!!! Oscar Worthy series !!!

This is my first Japanese TV series I've ever watched and it certainly wont be my last. I gotta say the whole show until the end was captivating and heart breaking at the same time lol. A must watch for anyone who wants to see a great true story told in 80s Japan. Also I'd recommend watching it in English subtitle as their original voice adds to the awesomeness of the show. Cheers!

Great show all around. Actors, plot, and accuracy. It's filled with comedy, drama and action. In this show you'll be rooting for the main character but later on you will begin to doubt him. Is he really as good as we think as he is even though it seems like he is doing the right things for the right reasons? Even the villains here have depth and the side characters also have a lot of depth to them it's really amazing for what someone would think was just a flick about porn.

I really hope there is a second season where we see more of the effect that the yakuza and police will have on toru's business now that they've become stronger.

I had always thought Japanese series was mostly about action but this really changed my mind, it's a truly unique story with great characters and I basically watched all episodes in a row and felt sad when it was the end of episode 8. That alone says a lot about the story. I really hope there's a second season planned.

The acting, the soundtrack, the Japanese backdrop, and the time period all make for a great show.

It makes me wish I had a time machine to 80s Japan. Intricate story lines keep me engaged.

Check it out.
