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.
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.

Very funny. The atmosphere is totally Japan's 80s . The actors did a great job, especially Yamada Takayuki. Couldn't stop watching it.
Please watch it with the original, Japanese audio and not the dubbed verison.
The story was truly amazing, realistic and captivating.
Not a single scene felt rushed or slow, pacing was perfect. The story really captures Japan in the 80s and the porn industry of that era. The story is basically a fight for the market share of the industry despite the government restrictions on uncensored pornography.
I don't know how much of this is true and how much is fictitious but one thing that I do know is that this series is extremely entertaining and informative.
It is definitely worth a watch.
!!!! Delicious Sapporo Bento !!!! Oscar Worthy series !!!

- TriviaAccording to an interview with the real Toru Muranishi, he mentioned that Takayuki Yamada expressed a high willingness to appear as Muranishi. Yamada had considerable endorsement contracts in Japan, but Muranishi dissuaded him by reminding him, "If you take this role, you may lose your endorsement deals." Yamada said firmly, "It doesn't matter. I'm not a commercial star. I do what I want. Please give me this opportunity. "
