＜Introduction
Shinjuku Dist. East Side ・・・・・・ In the center of this chaotic city, Kabukicho spreads out in the twinkling neon lights.
Where the light is strong, the shadows are thick. In the darkest recesses where the bad guys lurk, the lights of a detective tenement house light up.
The tenement run by Mrs. Hudson is full of crooks with seven different habits. There is an ambitious detective, a sister detective who bewitches men, and a detective-typical maniac.
There is also a detective who is an old man who is not a detective, and a detective Anchan who has been excommunicated from the yakuza. ・・・・・・
And the star of the show is Sherlock Holmes, a genius detective who loves rakugo (comic storytelling).
On the night of the bizarre murder of Jack the Ripper, the curtain rises on the stage.
The story is based on the friendship between Sherlock, Watson, and Moriarty, with the antics of the detectives as the weft and the friendship between Sherlock, Watson, and Moriarty as the warp. ・・・・・・
Mystery? Or is it a comedy? The beginning of a drama that is impossible to tell apart.
