A Tale of Two Truncheons

Ended

Drama·1984·1 Seasons

Based on Kazuo Koike's extensive manga (over 110 volumes), this Edo-period drama follows an unlikely pair of law enforcement officers. One is a serious, skilled investigator, while the other is a witty, unconventional problem-solver, creating a dynamic partnership. The series also features the charmingly unorthodox detective Suruyoshi in a notable period drama debut. A memorable and catchy soundtrack complements the engaging stories brought to life by a large and talented cast.

Starring: Tatsuo Nadaka,Goro Noguchi,Kazuko Kato,Ken Watanabe
