JINXED (2015)
JINXED is a 2015 Japanese-language crime series. It stars Kazuki Kitamura, Gaku Hamada and Rio Yamashita.
Set in Osaka, high-spirited yakuza Kuwabara and buttoned-down construction consultant Ninomiya form an odd couple as they rail against the city’s “bad elements” drawn to money like sharks to the scent of blood. Laced with the characteristic witty banter of the Osaka dialect here is a gritty, hard-boiled drama that explodes with violent thrills and impact that defies all expectations.
