one of the newer arrivals worth your time, Akudama Drive is currently streaming in Australia on Crunchyroll and Crunchyroll Amazon Channel, and in the US on Crunchyroll and Crunchyroll Amazon Channel with a 8/10 audience score that speaks for itself. 12 episodes — the right length to tell the story it's telling.
At its heart, Akudama Drive is a procedural that understands what makes the genre work — character first, plot second. Many years ago, a Great Civil War ravaged Japan, leaving the country fragmented between two regions: Kansai and Kanto. In Kansai, a group of six Akudama carry out missions given to them by a mysterious black cat, while evading the police. But a dangerous journey is about to unfold when a civilian girl becomes twisted into the Akudama's way of life and witnesses their criminal drives. Tomoyo Kurosawa and Yuuichirou Umehara lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It aired in 2020.
If you're the type who can't walk away from a good mystery, Akudama Drive will keep you watching far longer than you planned.
