NIGHTMARE DETECTIVE 2 (2008)
Welcome back to the Midnight Patrol, and welcome back Tsukamoto fans. You may recall this inane reference from last time in the discussion of Nightmare Detective part one. But this is the sequel so things are the same but different. How different? On the surface things seem to be very unchanged. There are more suicidal thoughts, more bad parents, and more ghostly visions. Thankfully this is where things pick up and a lot of the problems from last time around have been addressed. Shinya Tsukamoto himself isn’t in front of the camera which is a shame, though unsurprising. Meanwhile singer Hitomi also declined to return which… is less of a problem. Let’s delve into the other tortured mindscapes involved and see what other changes lie in wait.
