3 eps deep into s2. The final eps of s1 got complicated recalling several stories from previous eps and lending an almost soap opera quality to it. It’s gotten to the point where you need to know what’s happened in the past because it’s self referencing a lot more now, instead of stand alone vignettes.
The mystery of the Master deepens.
S2 added some elements like the outro recipe song (which I’m not sold on yet). I was starting to think it was losing speed until the Karate ep, and the great tease from the chopped bottle neck catch by the wandering river-analogy poet who made the peanut abacus. Intriguing and I hope that back story gets revealed inevitably. Some new characters - I like the contrast of the cop and the yakuza dude. Glad the menu expanded to include highballs.
Stacy watched an ep and said it reminded her of when she was in Tokyo in 84. She visited Shinkuju and remembers it being quite the red light district.
