Ryûji
(Ryûji)

by Tôru KAWASHIMA

Ryuji is a minor league gang boss in Tokyo’s Shinjuku. By gang standards he is successful. Money is rolling in. But money is not enough.

In love with his wife, doting on his daughter, Ryuji is not satisfied with punk existence. So he does an extraordinary thing. He tries to go straight. He gets a job, every month he gives his pay check to his wife, in the evenings he is with his daughter. But the strain continues – eventually he returns to his old life.
