Tokyo MER: The Sumida River Mission
2023 · 1h 19m · Drama, Thriller, TV Movie
Skip it unless you're a devoted fan of the Tokyo MER franchise—this TV movie sequel feels more like extended fan service than a compelling standalone story, bogged down by internal team politics that won't land if you're not already invested in these characters.
Plot
Half a year has passed since the official approval of TOKYO MER. Kitami is racking his brains over the issue of a second doctor to replace Otowa, who has left the team in order to expand MER to ordinance-designated cities nationwide. Some members of the team want Hina to be promoted, but Otowa asserts that Hina should pursue her path of cardiovascular surgery. She felt the pressure that Hina could take Otowa's place, and she was troubled.
