Very much a mixed bag. Only the middle two scams are actually good - the first one is boring, and the last one is excessive in every possible way that ruins the goodwill from the previous arcs. The characters are interesting, but rarely is interesting stuff done with them.

It's not nearly as clever as it thinks and unfortunately the entire premise falls apart because of that.

Its not bad, per se, but relatively boring in my opinion.I find the characters all completely uninteresting, any information about their backstories felt without any real inspiration, everything had already been seen somewhere else. The entire anime feels “borrowed” starting from the opening and ending with the background design/colors. I stopped after the third scam, its just not for me, it all comes across as kind of boring western crime series, it might be more interesting in Asia than here.
