Tokyo Vice Season 2 | Official Trailer
The trailer for the new season begins with Jake sitting in a car. Samantha Porter, an expat played by Rachael Keller, often challenges him about his job. Jake boldly responds to the inquiry, stating that he hunts down stories.
Later, she inquires about his favorite aspect of his profession, to which he says that he enjoys the unpredictability of his job.
Following the simple introduction scene, the trailer becomes more violent as many masked people attack a party.
In the following scene, Hiroto Katagiri, played by Ken Watanabe, reminds Jake that he did not come to Tokyo for a single story. Katagiri emphasizes that “other stories and crimes” exist to be revealed.
The conversation suggests that Jake will embark on another journey to expose the criminal conspiracy in the coming season. This time, he’s chasing someone with tattoos on his hands. The trailer concludes with Jake losing his calm when he realizes those close to him are in danger.
Aside from the investigation scene featured in the teaser, the second season will be action-packed, with Jake fighting someone on the streets of Tokyo.
