Yūsuke Ōnuki

The story follows the incredibly wealthy Daisuke Kanbe who audaciously solves cases in unconventional ways. Whereas Tsutsui serialized the original novel from 1975 to 1977, the anime moves the setting into the modern day. Kanbe is assigned to the "Modern Crimes Task Unit" - a unit created to keep problematic officers away from others. There, Kanbe becomes partners with Katō.
