I was calling it "not smart" and "annoying" but I was definitely in a minority there - but not completely alone. There were quite a few people calling episode 2 "weirdly racist" though, and they were right, and that's where I stopped.

nayrt

That episode soured me on the show quite a bit.

I had to look up that episode because I'd forgotten and... oh yeah, THAT one. The whole Black Lotus gang thing was a weird callback to the Arthur Conan Doyle stories since he was notorious about using Asian cultures to spice up his stories, but, you know, that was in Victorian times and we should do better now. Only the show didn't do better and it was super yikes.

And it's not like there aren't Asian crime organisations they could have referenced but they did it in the most stereotypically racist way possible and... wow.
