Wit Studio released this synopsis of the anime, “Self-styled ‘Japan’s greatest swindler’ Makoto Edamura is mainly targeting elder people and occasional foreign travelers. But when he tries to scam an apparently clueless French tourist in Tokyo, he can’t possibly imagine that what looked like just another ordinary job is going to take him all the way to Los Angeles, tied upside-down on the famous Hollywood sign…And he is yet to find out what fate awaits him!”

Yoshiyuki Sadamoto designed the characters in the show, and Ryota Kosawa is the writer. Yutaka Yamada is the composer who composed the theme song inspired by The Platters’ song The Great Pretender, and Maiko Okada produces Great Pretender.
