Why tonight?
- One season, and then it ends — a story with a last episode, not a habit.
- It goes hard on violence — not a wind-down.
- Reviewed better than most series in the catalogue.
The story

Tatsumi is recruited by Night Raid, a group of assassins dedicated to eliminating corruption by mercilessly killing officials and privileged nobles.
