kiDnap GAME

Detective Toshiro Niide is a straightforward man with a strong sense of justice. To arrest a criminal, he disregards danger and sometimes acts in ways that seem reckless. Whenever he is on the verge of being consumed by anger, he is guided by the words of his wife, Saori: "Show me kindness rather than anger. That is the right thing for you to do." Niide and six others whose loved ones have been taken, each receive a mysterious message on their phones: "You have been entered in the kiDnap GAME."

The game has finally begun. Toshiro Niide receives his mission: "Apprehend the mastermind behind the kidnappings." Determined to save Saori, Niide pursues the case on his own. Evading the Special Investigation Team (SIT), which has placed him under surveillance as a suspect, he gathers information from Sonomi Uemura, the owner of the food truck Saori frequents, and news reporter Akina Isobe. Yet the kidnappers' motives and objectives remain elusive.
