Starring Mei Nagano, Netflix’s revenge series Burn the House Down revolves around Anzu Murata, whose ailing mother was accused of arson. A massive fire took place in the distant past, and Anzu was thereby forced to flee her childhood home. Convinced that the fire was in reality another person’s doing, she plots revenge against her family’s perpetrators, specifically her stepmother.

Anzu faked her present identity and invented a pseudonym so she can stay in as a housekeeper in her old house, where she plans to gather proof of her stepmom’s criminal act. She carries out a scheme that she hopes will help reclaim her rights to her parents’ property and the freedom and reputation of her family.

Based on the novel Burn the House Down by Moyashi Fujisawa, the suspense-drama from Japan is now streaming on Netflix. With eight episodes that last for less than an hour, the new hit show landed the streaming platform’s Top 10 TV Shows in the Philippines. It is currently placed on the fourth spot following King the Land, Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead, and Jujutsu Kaisen.
