What is City Hunter Live-Action About?
As per Netflix, the new show is described as “a modern-day updated version of the manga, set in the bustling streets of Shinjuku." The original manga is an action detective comedy written by Tsukasa Hojo. The story follows the adventures of a sweeper named Ryo Saeba, whose only work is to follow and chase beautiful women.
The other character that we are introduced to is a private detective who goes by the name of Hideyuki Makimura. The collision of these two worlds makes up for the plot of City Hunter. Although, it is not clear how the plot of the live-action will veer from that of the manga. It will be interesting to see what the final product looks like on Netflix. We will be sure to update this section with more intel as they come. Thus, keep an eye on Pinkvilla.
