Are there any good Yakuza anime?
Or crime/gang anime in general.
>>133661339
No.
Read Sanctuary manga instead.
>>133661288
just manga
Nisekoi
>http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-34830581
>>133661288
not really
>>133661288
>>133662059
Project K may be similar somewhat to what you're looking for.
>>133666959
Not exactly Cute Gangsters Doing Criminal Things, though.
>>133667618
Anzu is love, Anzu is life.
Bitches dont know bout my Gokusen
NO SPOONFEEDING
>>133661288
Gungrave is Mafia-related if that's ok. Maybe Gunslinger Girl.
I just finished watching the Emblem Take 2 OVA. It were pretty nice but I wish the manga was translated.
>>133670301
I'm not sure it still counts as spoonfeeding if the answer is no.
>>133661288
>glorifying criminals and cutthroats
nah I'll pass
>>133667618
source?
>>133661288
Nisekoi
>>133661339
I would say Gangsta if 'good' wasn't a requirement
>>133671031
Hinamatsuri.
No, but there are some solid manga though.
Nope. Just watch A Better Tomorrow and Inferno Affairs.
City Hunter.
Crying Freeman....COME ON!
koroshiya ichi
Mind Game kinda
>>133661288
So which one in that photo is the gang boss? Or is this like the cast of Nichibros?
Durarara, Black lagoon kind of.
Not whole YAKUZA show though.
>>133661288
KAAAAAAAAAAAAAIJIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111
>>133661288
Just play the Yakuza series. It's all cutscenes and talking anyway.
Pic related, you play as him and protect a blind girl voiced by Miyuki Sawashiro
>>133672682
sounds gay. do you protect her with your dick?
>>133672780
Nah. He only into naked man
>>133661288
Wolf Guy got Yakuza
>>133661288
No
And their are only two types of live action yakuza films anyway, the old guy that regrets what he's done, and the young guy that gets in over his head. It's a really boring genre.
>>133674128
>It's a really boring genre.
You sound like a massive faggot.
GunGrave is basically a retelling of Once Upon a Time in America for Japanese middle school nerds.
>>133674128
I've never seen any yakuza films before, but it does really sound like a genre you didn't like in the first place.
>>133661288
Reborn.
Seto no Hanayome.
>>133672038
Dude wearing distinctive attire and standing near the center is boss obviously.
Some photographer took lots of pictures of japanese fire fighters, festival krews, motorcycle gangs etc, and it's always really easy to tell who the leader is.
>>133670469
seconding Gungrave, but avoid 1st ep. Start from the 2nd one
>>133672682
>Miyuki Sawashiro
muh dick

Manga-wise there's Heat. It's written by the same person as Fist Of The North Star, by the way.
Yakuza 5 when?
>>133676773
It's coming in December. A full three years after it's Japanese release but, still, it's better than no release ever.
>>133661339
Here you go >>133651033
>>133671758
Just say Ichi the killer
Also Tekkon Kinkreet should get an honourable mention.
>>133678249
Did anyone said Itch the ditch?
>>133676587
>not watching fist of the azure sky, the prequel
>its literally Not!Kenshiro punching the shit out of yakuza fucks and fighting in gangwars
get to reading faggot
>>133678432
did this series ever get better after the idol$ shit started?
>>133678432
Takes forever for them to fuck.
>>133676587
Wait, I thought this wasn't fully translated?
Yes.
>>133678477
uh, didn't the idol shit span like two chapters at most? I barely remember it.
>>133664522
Kek
Not particularly anime but you should read Crows or watch the live action movies. Its about highschool delinquents but Yakuza are involved.
>>133679481
Crows has an anime. It's an OVA of the first couple of chapters.
Why were japanese so damn badass back then? Pic related was your average high school.
Id roll with these hard-asses. I used to have a pompadour in high school but everyone was too much of a pussy or a faggot to handle it.
>>133679587
>implying
that's from one of the Be-bop high films you idiot.
>>133679603
Which was a faithful depiction of your typical depiction of your typical japanese high school in those times.
>>133679625
Jesus christ you're a faggot.
>>133679631
Whats the problem senpai? Youre the one who cant handle it. I guess you were one of those losers the seniors pushed around. Nothing like kentarou over there. He crushed all the third years. Just look at his eyes.
>>133679140
No idea to be honest. I don't read it in English - it's been released officially where I live. I think all of it has been translated here (since I buy it, I haven't read all of it yet), but I didn't look how is it in English. Just that there were links to English scanlation sites when I googled for the image,.
>>133679801
You know everyone made fun of your pompadour right?
This bad as motherfucker watches his wife die, and then kills his qt3.14 assistant without even showing any emotion.
Shit I forgot about a manga I wanted to read
I think it was a Yakuza member in charge of watching over a little girl.
Any idea?
>>133679990
Yeah because they couldnt handle it. Unfortunately for them I lift and I wasnt gonna take any of that shit. Got into so many fights in my third year. No one dared fuck with me in my senior year.
And youre still a faggot.
>>133661339
black lagoon duh
and in a way, baccano
>>133672682
I came in here to suggest this. RGG would do really well as a manga, it might as well be one.
>>133680070
Jesus Christ, you sound like a tremendous faggot.
>>133681785
You sound like a kek and a faggot. You were probably that guy who got his gf stolen from him on prom night. You probably went home to watch k-on. Fucking loser. No one fucked with me.
>>133682087
Fuck off normalfag
ALSO YOU FAGGOTS STOP SPOONFEEDING
mermaid yakuza detected
>>133682347
I'm not even the same person you were originally talking to. But holy shit you sound like a massive normalfag.
>>133682347
You don't even sound like a normie, you sound like an edgelord.
>>133682405
Oh shut the fuck up. Youre just as much of a faggot as he is. You to can go fuck each other in the ass. Its the most sexual contact youll get in your pathetic lives anyway.
>>133682462
Im not an edgelord. I just dont let people fuck with me. They dont know shit about how to look good.
>>133682691
Requesting pics of your pomp and your alleged style
>>133682859
What for? Youll just disrespect it like all the other losers did. Except this time youre conveniently behind a computer screen so I couldnt break your face.
>>133682940
I'll only disrespect if it isn't worthy of respect
>>133680070
Did you beat the ever living shit out of them if they said you had shit hair, anon?
>>133680047
Hinamatsuri
>>133661288
Is Yakuza a taboo subject for anime?
>>133683075
You trying to say Im trying to say Im trying to ape some 2D character? Im not.
Pompadours go way back, all the way back to Louis XV's mistress Madame de Pompadour to Presley to The Sopranos, and I respect their history. Theyre interesting and fashionable and I get hella pissed when someone tries to diss them.
>>133683008
You dont know respect.
>>133682691
Kill yourself
>>133684471
No I wont, you pathetic faggot. My life is better than yours.
>>133683703
So no style, just edge
>>133683667
No anon, I'm trying to ask if you beat up people who insult your hairstyle. Anyway, you don't really come off as a nice person like pic related, calling people fagets and spouting superiority bollocks on 4chan of all places, so I'll say what I want about your hairstyle.
Why do Yakuza listen to nothing but Enka?
>>133686543
Because they're old men.
>>133661339
gungrave, skip the 1st episode
cromartie high school
gokusen manga/live action
>>133686518
All I did was say that I had a Pompadour in high school and still have one now. Then all you faggots had to try and insult me. I am a nice guy, but I dont like it when people refuse to show common decency and respect. Thats why I call you faggots.
And fuck you. You cant say what you want about my hairstyle.
>>133684785
Im getting bullshit about edge from an underage on /a/? Haha. Fuck off kid.
>>133687141
Show us the pompadour, don't just tell us about it. Please?
>>133686733
If I like Enka, does that mean I have the taste of an old racist Japanese man?
>>133661288
Nisekoi
>>133687739
Depends, what are your favorite Enka artists? Did you prefer Capsule when they initially started in that genre?
>>133687356
Only if you put on a skirt.
>>133687921
Enka? I haven't heard their earlier albums, but I thought they were Shibuya-kei.
IIRC, Nana Mizuki is a trained Enka singer, though.
>>133687921
A few of my favorites are:
藤圭子
角川博
島津亜矢
八代亜紀
Pleb tastes I'd imagine, but I'm white so I have an excuse.
>>133678071
I wish this had more chapters.
>>133679587
Why did some shave off their eyebrows?
>>133674128
Fuck you, Tokyo Nagaremono is a masterpiece.
>>133688661
fuck off and speak english. This isnt /jp/ you fucking piece of shit.
>>133688146
>he's a faggot
what a waste of a pompadour
>>133692193
>waste of a pompadour
Pompadours do not mean what you think they mean.
>>133679379
>>133678477
that made me drop the series, too. And yeah it lasted a good dozen chapters or something, was completely pointless and felt out of character and meant nothing at all.
But after that, it gets back on track.
>>133669170
It's josei though.
>>133692193
I was being sarcastic you little disrespectful shit. You dont deserve to see my pompadour.
Heat, Sanctuary, Crying Freeman, etc
>>133694232
>implying that is a bad thing
>>133694439
>>133694039
I'm only speaking for the ones I've read and I'll try to be succint.
Crying Freeman was terrible. Extremely generic action shitfest where the main character slays everyone with ease while being muscular and fucking every woman in sight. Story nonexistant. Action power fantasy.
Sanctuary almost the exact same thing as crying freeman except replace the killing everyone with politically outmaneuvering them. Sanctuary actually has a story and its not bad but the manga is up to its ears in cheesy nationalism and general cliche stupidity. Think of a parody of American ubernationalism, except now Japanese. In some cases its funny as a joke though but make no mistake thats not intentional
Sun Ken Rock, unbelievably good art in the later chapters, probably some of the best art in manga history. Great, high pace action, although not even remotely realistic. Once again another overly masculine hyper power action porno fantasy with no plot. In this case it once had a plot, but there are really bad filler arcs like the Idol one and everyhing goes to complete and utter shit in the last arc. I mean seriously it was bad. Main character just kills everyone instantly with hardly touching them theres no suspense because you know hes gonna beat everyone and somehow inspire everyone to be the best they can be while doing it. Retarded and predictable just like all of boichi's stories. Character development nonexistent or polarizing and unrealistic. If it had a story written by someone with talent this is easily 9/10.
>>133694709
I forgot to put this in there but I'm really not trying to be contrarian. Crying Freeman should not be read by anyone but Sanctuary and Sun Rock Ken sure even if they are silly
>>133694788
>Crying Freeman was terrible
Crying Freeman is great, you just can't appericate comedy.
