Great Pretender (Seasons 1–2)

Great Pretender (2020) is a high-stakes con-artist anime, and you can watch online every episode on iFILM. Makoto Edamura figures he's Japan's slickest swindler — right up until he tries to fleece a Frenchman named Laurent Thierry on the streets of Tokyo. Laurent turns out to be a world-class grifter, and he ropes the cocky rookie onto his crew.

From there it's Los Angeles, Singapore, London, Shanghai. Each season-long "case" is a layered sting against marks who have it coming: a drug kingpin, a crooked art dealer, an aviation tycoon. The team plays parts, forges papers, and bluffs on the edge of collapse, and you rarely know who's actually conning whom until the last beat.

Wit Studio, the team behind Attack on Titan, paints the whole thing in acid-bright color — one of the best-looking shows of its year. The breezy tone hides stories about trust, revenge, and who these people were before the lies. A treat if you love Ocean's Eleven and smart double-cross plotting.
