Killing for the Prosecution
Directed by Masato Harada
A procedural crime drama centered on a mentor-protégé relationship tested when a murder investigation entangles the mentor's past, balancing institutional duty against personal loyalty.
Young public prosecutor Keiichiro Okino is assigned to the department of the Tokyo Public Prosecutors Office that deals with violent cases, where he will work with Takeshi Mogami, whom he admires. When a money lender is killed and it is suspected that someone from Mogami’s past is the perpetrator, the team prepares to do his best in order to prove the alleged criminal’s guilt.
