Plot Synopsis
Based on Jake Adelstein's 2009 book of the same name, TOKYO VICE is a crime drama series, filmed on location in Tokyo, that captures Adelstein's daily descent into the neon-soaked underbelly of Tokyo in the late '90s, where nothing -- and no one -- is truly what or who they seem. As crime boss Tozawa dangerously toes the line between territories, the rival Chihara-Kai scramble to collect dues. Samantha protects another hostess, while Jake witnesses a confrontation that changes everything. Jake's persistence pays off when he receives an exclusive from Detective Katagiri -- but catches the less ideal eye of someone else in the process. Meanwhile, Samantha hits it off with a new customer, as Sato chooses between words and fists. The first three episodes of TOKYO VICE dropped on Thursday, April 7, 2022 on HBO Max, with two more episodes on Thursdays, April 14 & 21 and the finale on Thursday, April 28.
The 10-episode second season of TOKYO VICE debuted with two new episodes on Thursday, February 8, 2024 on Max. A new installment dropped each Thursday through April 4. Season 2, filmed on location in Tokyo, goes deeper into the city's criminal underworld as Adelstein comes to realize that his life, and the lives of those close to him, are in terrible danger.
