Undercover Legend

Becoming a legend of the underworld can be a hassle. Especially when you are apparently too good for your job. That is the story behind The Fable. A hired assassin is forced to go into hiding for a year for being way too good at his job. I also wish there were more to say. Unfortunately, I wish this show were more than just a guy living his life, especially with the setup. Had it been told as more of a slice of life, I probably wouldn’t have been as disappointed. While there was action, nothing had consequences, as there was nothing to be gained or lost, as he is known to be the best, and that is not something questioned by anyone. There was one interesting plotline, but the longer it went on, the intrigue was lost. It was a decent anime to have play in the background, just not at all what I was expecting to happen.
