ODDTAXI (2021)

13 episodes. Hiroshi Odokawa, an eccentric and blunt walrus, drives a taxi around Tokyo and gets pulled into the case of a missing teenage girl through the passengers he picks up. The cute animal designs are a disguise for one of the tightest crime scripts in recent anime. Conversations in the cab that seem like idle chat turn out to be clues, and the many separate threads close together in a finale that rewards close attention. Watch it in as few sittings as you can, because the details matter.
