"Anonymous"

 Also began watching “Anonymous: Keishicho ”Yubisatsujin” Taisakushitsu”, the Shingo Katori- led task force created to combat cyberbullying and other crimes through social media.
Along with Katori as Wataru Banjo, we also have his partner Usui Sakiyoshi (Nagisa Sekimizu), MEGUMI as the “Computer hacker” character Rinko Suganuma and Shinjiro Koshiyagi (Masanobu Katsumura) as the team coordinator. Together they track the people who hide behind the anonymity of the internet to do their crimes.
There is also a side plot about Banjo with his former partner, Kuraki (Shim Eun-Kyung) who, after a shooting, is hospitalized and unresponsive. i guess this is going to be the 'larger" story with individual cases peppering each episode.
So far, the show is seeming more like a “Zettai-Reido Lite” drama than a show with original merit, but folks online are giving Anonymous good reviews, so I’ll stick around and see where this goes….
PS: Nice to see Nagisa Sekimizu again!
