Confession of Jack the Ripper (2015)

Other name: Kirisaki Jack no Kokuhaku - Keiji Inukai Hayato

Description:

"Confession of Jack the Ripper" plunges into a chilling crime drama as a young woman's body is discovered in a Tokyo park, all organs brutally removed. The self-proclaimed "Jack the Ripper" immediately taunts bewildered police, sending statements to a TV station. Ace detective Inukai Hayato, renowned for seeing through lies, partners with rookie Kotegawa Kazuya to investigate this disturbing case.

Inukai, usually unswayed by emotions, finds himself deeply affected. His personal life is also strained; his elementary school-aged daughter, Sayaka, suffers from a severe kidney disease and desperately needs a transplant. Her physician, Majikina Takahiko, and transplant coordinator Takano Chiharu, encourage early surgery.

As second and third crimes occur with the same gruesome modus operandi, resembling theatrical acts, the detectives uncover a shocking pattern. All victims had received organ donations from the same donor. Caught between his duty as a detective and his profound concern as a father for Sayaka's health, Inukai races against time to unmask the true identity of this elusive and brutal criminal.
