Unification of Japan Gaiden: Yamazaki Ichimon 2 (2020)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

After the incident in Kobe, Himuro (Yasukaze Motomiya) and Tamura (Yoshiyuki Yamaguchi) are both recovering from their injuries. During their absence, the Yamazaki Ichimon, led by Nakajima (Yoshimi Tachi), is ordered into action when Kotone Momose (Hiroko Takahashi), the office caretaker, receives a phone scam call. Furious, Kotone demands that they wipe out the scam group responsible. Reluctantly, Nakajima and the others begin devising a plan. They seek out Aoyama (Musuko Kintoki), who once worked as a phone-scam money mule, to learn how the scams operate. Their final plan is to tail a money mule and uncover the identity of the scam ring’s leader. However, with no funds to get started—and with Himuro and Tamura unavailable—Nakajima goes alone to consult Chairman Kawatani (Hitoshi Ozawa).

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
