    STORY

    “I will kill you without suffering.”

    Dr. Death is a serial killer who euthanizes people with terminal illnesses after they contact him on the dark web.

    Partners Hayato Inukai (Go Ayano) and Asuka Takachiho (Keiko Kitagawa) of the Metropolitan Police Department’s Investigation Division 1 set out to investigate the murders, but the bereaved families are thankful for the criminal’s assistance and protect him with false testimony.

    Is Doctor Death just a bizarre murderer? Or is he a god of salvation? As the story progresses, the viewer may come to believe that the murderer is in the right.

    THE LEGACY OF DR DEATH: BLACK FILE is a forbidden crime suspense tale inspired by a real doctor who euthanized 130 patients!
