Yakuza: Like a Dragon

Synopsis

Taking over as the leading man of the series is Ichiban Kasuga, of the Arakawa Family within the Tojo Clan. When the family's captain finds himself on the hook for murder, Kasuga happily takes his place, turning himself in to the police and taking the rap for a crime he didn't commit in 2001. Eighteen years later, he finishes his sentence and returns to civilization, only to find no one to welcome him home. Desperate to find out why he was forgotten, he searches for his family, only to receive a bullet from his leader for his troubles. Now in the coastal city of Ijincho, Yokohama, Kasuga finds himself with more questions than answers, and no one to turn to. He must now fight his way from rock bottom back to Kamurocho, and find out why the Tojo Clan has forsaken him. Thankfully, he won't have to fight alone: joining him in his journey are a motley crew of misfits from all walks of life, including Yu Nanba, a homeless back-alley doctor; Koichi Adachi, a disgraced former detective; Saeko Mukouda, a tough-as-nails cabaret club barmaid; and others.
