Viewing Notes

Don’t have many movie files on my work machine so I decided to rewatch this again to get back into the series. Feels like a serial with each movie feeling very episodic for this character. I like Sumiko Fuji’s take on the character; cool, calm and collected. Deadly as well. Bunta Sugawara shows up in this installment. Also noticed other characters that aren’t listed at TMDb so I need to update that.

Also realized that I logged the wrong movie on my original viewing.
