Netflix carries every part. The chapters are short and episodic — perfect palate-cleanser viewing between heavier shows.

## Synopsis

They called him the Immortal Dragon: the most feared enforcer in the underworld, a man whose name silenced rooms. Then he vanished. Today, Tatsu wears an apron, hunts supermarket sales like they're rival syndicates, and prepares character bento with the focus of a hitman. His wife Miku works corporate; Tatsu keeps house — and every mundane errand escalates into crime-drama theater. A roomba becomes a turf war. A cooking class becomes a summit. Old associates keep appearing, expecting the Dragon, and finding a man who will absolutely still destroy them — at volleyball, or over the last discount egg carton. The commitment to the bit is total, and the bit is bulletproof.
