Untouchable

2009 · 1 season

A dogged reporter digs beneath glossy celebrity surfaces, and the watch feels like peeling back a polished world to find something uneasy underneath.

Overview: When reporter Narumi Ryoko loses her job at a first-rate publisher and ends up at a trashy tabloid called "Shukan Untouchable." She now chases celebrity scandals and sensational stories, but she hasn't lost her sense of duty or her persistence. While investigating her stories, she tends to notice details that imply some hidden truth beneath the surface, leading her to probe deeper into dangerous secrets. --Tokyograph
