>italian american mafia
Why don't they just make it about the Yakuza instead?
>>143677335
Yakuzas aren't homosexuals.
>>143677335
Japanese government can't let people know they still exist.
>>143677552
Unlike the other criminal organisations, the Yakuza isn't a secret society.
Because if Japs want to watch Yakuza they watch dramas, movies or play video games. Yakuza stuff is usually targeted at people in their 30s or older.
because the studio wants to die halfway the series
>>143677335
Because that would completely change the story, do you think gangsters are completely interchangeable?
Yakuza would kill the studio.
For one the yakuza are geographically much closer to the people making this so they could actually fuck you up if you portrayed them in a negative fashion.
>>143677335
gotta get those westaboo yens
>>143678927
>>143678931
lmao yeah because we all remember how many HBO staff members were killed when they made the Sopranos right?
>>143677335
They'd be killed
>One theory is that Itami's suicide was forced by members of the Goto-gumi yakuza faction. A former member of the Goto-gumi faction told journalist Jake Adelstein in 2008, “We set it up to stage his murder as a suicide. We dragged him up to the rooftop and put a gun in his face. We gave him a choice: jump and you might live or stay and we’ll blow your face off. He jumped. He didn’t live.

>The Untouchables
>The Sopranos
>Boardwalk Empire
Man, I wish this series will be at the very least half as good as those shows.
>>143677335
There are literally thousands of live action Japanese movies about Yakuza
This looks like Baccano but with less humour and more homo.
>It's an americans talk shit about Japan thread
Don't you burgers ever get bored
>>143677552
This, Japan is all about making things look normal when they are not, fucking cancerous collective society
>>143677335
Huh, I might actually check that out.
It's not very common to see an anime based on western material.
I hope they don't fuck it up.
>>143679164
No
Mafia > Yakuza
Italy strong
>>143677335
Its Baccano 2.0
Not written by Narita, but all the staff involved in making anime is present - Studio Shuka specifically separated from Brainbase so that they could do stuff they wanted: and they wanted more Durarara and now Not-Baccano
>>143679198
There is nothing wrong with collectivism, prove me wrong. Westerns are simply intimidated by how flawless East Asian societies are.
>>143679198
see
>>143679092
Fuck off from /a/ and get a vasectomy.
>>143679164
Italian Mafia are way more powerful, this isn't even a shitpost.
>>143679281
Collectivism basically makes human regress to the lowest animals: insects.
Asians are literally ants that only think about the society and not themselves. This mentality is objectively horrible and negates the humanity of the individual
>>143677335
Read manga you faggots.
There's tons.
Anime is shit and half the stuff would be toned down for kids and manchildren.
>>143679297
I'm not talking about that, I'm talking about /a/nons shitposting about Japan being a shitty place to live in by saying pseudo political bullshit.
>>143679262
Isn't it not the same staff members?
>>143679262
I would be totally okay if all they made was gangster Anime that's on the same level as Baccano and Durarara.
>>143677335
Looks like Baccano.
>>143679378
Oh cool.
I'd probably not live there though, some sides are racist as fuck to foreigners
>>143679378
Whenever /a/ starts trying to talk about cultural, social, or psychological shit that's supposedly influencing anime, you should just tune it out, because it tends to be absolutely retarded.
>>143679334
>objectively
there goes any credibility your posts may pretend to have
>>143679334
Eastern China proves you wrong.
>expecting a grim mafia tale
>it looks like fujoshit crap
It's always the same.
>>143679695
>there are male characters
>FUCKING FUJOS RUINING EVERYTHING REEEEEEEEEEEE
>>143679725
>there are handsome young male characters that look nothing like real gangsters from the 20s
fix'd
>>143679773
Al Capone and Lucky Luciano were moe as fuck.
>>143679773
>>143679695
Stop overreacting. You are acting like this looks like some K Project shit.
>>143679334
Lol
>>143679773
Literally 99% of anime characters are beautified versions of their real life equivalents, dumbass.
>>143679198
Really? Then explain all the drama and movies centered on the yakuza?
>>143679520
It's the posters who are retarded.
And only here, by the way. Like the japanese, they would die better than praising anything about Japan. They even pretend they never were normal fags or weaboos at the beginning.
The only thing they are reunited in is denial.
>>143679334
What can you do when you're alone?
Except die alone?
It seems it's your fate, anon.
I hope they will find your rotting body before the neighbors can smell you.
>>143679695
I didn't know the mafia was exclusively made of females?
>>143679773
But there isn't any problem with loli killers. Of course.
>>143679297
2016 Yakuza is more powerful than any of the Italian groups apart from the Ndrangheta which in turn is the most powerful criminal group in the world.
>>143677335
Yakuza is worse off than Italian mafioso though.
>>143682231
What do you mean?
>>143677335
Looking forward to watching this for some reason.
>town literally named "Lawless"
Dead on arrival, this is gonna be the next Gangsta.
>>143679262
>all the staff involved in making anime is present
Except not. Only the character designer worked on Baccano and that was just as an animator.
