    • Synopsis
    • Tokyo. A multitude of tribes exist, with resident youth ruling the streets through violence while protecting their own turf. Until now, crossing territorial lines has led to riots and rumbles. One day, Kai, a Musashino Saru member, enters Bukuro turf with fellow gang member Hasheem and Musashino Saru leader Tera to help out their abducted comrade, Kim. There, Kai meets a mysterious girl named Sunmi.
      Kai and Mera face off. Why does Mera regard Kai with such hostility? What is Sunmi's true identity?
      Who is the “Archbishop” that Big Daddy's crew revere?
      The tribes are on the verge of exploding. Tonight, Tokyo is about to be enveloped in a battle that must be seen to be believed...
