Netflix has the full 23-episode run, so you can follow every caper there without switching between streaming services.

## Synopsis

A Japanese swindler who takes pride in his ability meets a foreign con artist capable of turning his own tricks against him. That encounter draws him into an international group whose targets are dangerous people with money and power. Their jobs unfold across glamorous locations, but the appeal comes from the friction between the elaborate performances and the personal reasons each participant has for joining them. Every caper asks the viewer to reconsider which setbacks are genuine and which may belong to a deeper plan. The premise stays playful even when the consequences become serious, and the story remains focused on how difficult trust becomes among people who lie for a living.
