It was pissing down that night too,

wasn't it, Dad?

May 1995,

the night of the raid.

What happened?!

May 1995, the night of the raid.

May 1995,

the night of the raid

My father was a lieutenant...

May 1995

The night of the raid

for the Ogoshi-gumi,

a Goseikai sub-gang.

We got word that all five members,

Junior's Dad and mine too,

had been killed.

Junior and me

rushed to hospital with Seiji,

who'd seen it go down.

Let us through!

When I saw my father's body

lying in the rain,

it felt strange, like I was

seeing my own future.

Daisuke! Take a good look.

- Dad!

- Daisuke!

- That's Hisamatsu.

- Junior was 15.

I was 13.

Mom wailed like a madwoman.

His name's Shigeru!

The Ogoshi-gumi's lieutenant...

Or bodyguard?

Our lives were transformed overnight.

As did Junior and me,

that night...

'Birds Disco'

At the time of the raid

People derided our "yakuza DNA"

behind our backs.

We derided dance music.

We smuggled in a boombox,

and danced to hip-hop by ourselves.

You're Ogoshi-gumi,

so we'll allow it, but...

Eurobeat is played out, dude!

Don't you know hip-hop, huh?!

- You little f***!

- Don't touch him!

Birds Disco was taken from Bandai...

by my dad's gang,

but the Goseikai boss's son...

took it over,

as a show of power.

Knock it off!

Seiji's here.

Still playing that old sh*t?

No wonder it's failing.

Got any trance?

Trance! Trance!

Sir! You're the owner now?

Congratulations!

Mr. Matsuura, I'm Ogoshi.

He's Hisamatsu's son...

Oh. I just drank with your old man.

"That fishface Bandai!", he said.

What a chump.

Ha ha! It's in our DNA.

She's cute.

He's a fan of hers.

Aren't you?

- Answer your phone!

- Say what?!

- You like trance?

- I like rock.

Hey, how's it hanging?

What? I'm with Seiji.

Seiji!

What is it?

All of them? No way.

Where?

To the hospital.

Get the car!

Hayato! Let's go!

The boombox!

Blood.

Mikihiko Bandai...

He destroyed everything.

10 years ago,

Japan's bubble economy thrived.

Bandai, an ex-rock musician,

borrowed money...

from Dad's Okoshi Promotions.

He opened his own disco,

and became a celebrity.

I'm very sorry,

we're closing...

Shithead!

However, the bubble soon burst,

and Bandai was hounded daily

to pay his debts.

Okoshi Promotions was...

a front for the Goseikai syndicate.

Bandai knew that on weekends,

money from gambling, drugs,

and prostitution flooded their office.

I can't do it alone.

With you, Junichi, I can.

Bandai had a plan,

to turn the tables.

Hizu!

An ex-cop jailed for drugs.

Hizu.

Hizu, and a hothead...

We rob them to break them.

Jimmy, a failed boxer

turned gang member.

Ogiwara, a laid-off salaryman.

They were all broke.

Us yakuza ain't scared of guns!

The five outcasts

pulled off the heist.

Junior's dad had to

forfeit his finger.

However,

the Goseikai's retribution

was inescapable.

Hey, Hayato!

You got big!

I couldn't tell on the phone.

It's been a while.

2000. Five years after the raid

Both of our dads died today...

2000. Five years after the raid

2000. Five years after the raid

Five years since Aum, too.

I like your black suit.

You're Seiji's bodyguard?

Matsuura's, officially.

And sometimes Seiji's.

To prep for reforming the

Okoshi-gumi?

To make a living.

You wanted to talk?

I heard from an ex-gangster

loan shark.

"Hayato's mom is trouble...

"Every month on Hisamatsu's

deathday, she harasses Seiji."

Don't scare me like that.

Hey, Matsuura! Didn't you tell me

my grandpa died?

Sorry.

Lucky it was the Ogoshi-gumi.

You bastard!

F*** you!

It was his job to be a shield!

Ogoshi got killed in the garage,

and Hisamatsu in the car! Unarmed!

And the shooter got away?

What the f***?!

He couldn't protect his boss.

That punk was no yakuza!

Your man was a piece of sh*t, b*tch!

Say what, scumbag?

My man was no coward!

F*** off!

The Goseikai won't let it slide.

You've gotta stop her.

I'm sorry.

Ogoshi got a funeral,

but why not my husband?

He was expelled.

June 1995:

half a month after the raid

Goseikai HQ

He was expelled.

June 1995:

half a month after the raid

Goseikai HQ

He was Ogoshi-gumi.

June 1995:

half a month after the raid

Goseikai HQ

He was Ogoshi-gumi.

He even gave his life

for the Goseikai,

but he got no compensation.

That's not right!

Expulsion means getting totally

cut loose. Them's the breaks.

He shoulda taken out life insurance.

Here. Take this and scram.

Boss! I don't want money!

It's about his honour!

Cut the bullshit!

He made us look like chumps!

Grandpa stepped down.

They want us to break up.

The cops and media are on our backs.

You don't matter.

I'll kill you!

What the f***?!

We were expelled, too!

Incense alone cost a million!

B*tch, you pulled a piece on Seiji?

I don't wanna see you again!

Hey, kid! You neither!

You're expelled for life!

So, Katsuko. That money.

You want it or not?!

You gotta hang tight.

Look at me:

I'm a syndicate bodyguard now.

I'll work my way up and

rebuild the Ogoshi-gumi.

When I do, you and me

will take over.

From now on,

I'll be the muscle,

and you be the brains.

- But that territory is...

- Yeah. It's Matsuura's.

But it's really Seiji's.

He pretends to be legit.

Hey, you were a fan of Asami, right?

Blood.

She's an ex-idol,

but still Seiji's woman.

And sometimes the boss's.

She's an orphan too.

I don't need it!

Don't be a stranger.

Say hi to your mom for me.

What's his problem?

Shinjuku Central Hospital

See ya.

Stop it! Stop it!

No way. Shot eight times?!

- He was? Or them?

- Don't know. No witnesses.

Crimson Flower

Who shot my father?

The two hitmen?

Or did you do it?

You were a cop once,

so regain consciousness,

and testify.

You won't talk?

You're the only witness left!

Kaname Hizu

Admitted in 1995

I'm home.

I bought dinner.

Dad's shirts

Want a bath?

Or dinner first?
