Read or Die the TV - S01

Anita King, Maggie Mui, and Michelle Cheung-known as the Paper Sisters-run the Three Sisters Detective Agency in Hong Kong, specializing in cases related to books. When Japanese novelist Nenene Sumiregawa, suffering from writer's block after her friend Yomiko Readman vanished, hires them as local guides, they quickly find themselves protecting her from terrorists at a book signing. As Paper Masters with the ability to manipulate paper, the sisters fend off the attack and stay on as Nenene's bodyguards in case the threat returns. For Maggie and Michelle, both avid fans of Nenene's work, this is a dream job. But Anita, despite her paper-controlling powers, despises books. Adjusting to life in Japan while guarding Nenene and handling detective work for the shadowy organization Dokusensha proves challenging. As they grow closer to Nenene, they uncover connections between her, Yomiko's disappearance, and the enigmatic books Dokusensha assigns them to investigate. What started as a straightforward assignment turns into their most dangerous case yet. Are the Paper Sisters truly prepared to risk everything-for the sake of literature?
