This is the opening sequence of the television adaptation of Seicho Matsumoto’s novel The Black Leather Notebook.

The story draws viewers into a world where luxury and darkness collide, where money, power, and revenge shape the harsh reality of a woman fighting to survive in a male-dominated society.

In this sequence, the protagonist moves through the dazzling lights and deep shadows of an exclusive nightclub, navigating a world built on temptation and deception. Every step she takes brings her closer to the fine line between power and betrayal, every choice a calculated move in a high-stakes struggle. Beneath the city’s glamorous surface, corruption and ambition weave a complex web of influence and control. And within it, she is both the hunted and the hunter.
