The first episode I was unsure as I was also watching Kinn and Porsche so in comparison not as steamy. The first episode being the pilot I think they were still trying to figure out the camera work. And when using the nine tails I think the actor was not aware his face was being focused on so that was odd and disconnected from the scene. But after episode one it gets good. Keep with it.

It portraits a story were the lead is acting as one would act in his situation. He is reluctant to get involved with the Mafia world. Wants to be left alone and does not just roll over and give up. Keep watching, the storyline is good I don't feel like episodes are a waste of time, they all have purpose and help develop the story.
