What if the police could look at the memories of dead victims and criminals? It would certainly provide clues for solving crimes but what other secrets would it reveal? What would be the consequences of seeing things never meant to be seen? And, of course, who would try to take advantage of the technology to serve their own ends? Himitsu - Top Secret is episodic with an overarching plot line. Nice animation, good character development that could have gone deeper had the series been longer. There is a touch of romance and hints that the director is gay but neither is the focus.; There issomeaction but HTS is primarily a mystery thriller that asks some pretty profound questions about morality and privacy.

This series is vastly underrated and highly under viewed.

If you enjoyed Monster, you will find the 26 episodes of Himitsu - Top Secret well worth your time. Those who liked Death Note might also find HTS satisfying.

It was based on a manga so if you want to go deeper into the story you can.
