Description

Blurb:
Tokyo Tribes paints a vivid, somewhat surreal vision of urban youth. When the heat between two of Tokyo’s gangs gets personal, a bitter rivalry explodes into all-out warfare. Manga-ka Santa Inoue’s hard-hitting, fantastical tale of Tokyo street thugs battling it out in the concrete sprawl of Japan’s capital raises the bar for manga storytelling, transcending genres and conventions.
Testo della bandella:
Quattro bande si dividono Tokyo, tre delle quali spietate e violente, una, quella del protagonista, sembra essere la più tranquilla, un semplice gruppo di amici. A parte questa eccezione le bande non si limitano ad atti teppistici, ma per esempio i Wu-Ronz di Bukuro gestiscono il mercato della prostituzione, che alimentano organizzando veri e propri sequestri e rapimenti di ragazze. La polizia non può nulla anche perchè non si fanno problemi a uccidere, spesso in modo cruento. E proprio i Wu-Ronz decidono di provocare le altre bande, la propria zona probabilmente inizia a starle stretta. A farne le spese sono tre amici del protagonista, Kay dei Saru di Musashinokuni: le teste di due sono trovate decapitate sull’asfalto, la terza viene attaccata ad un vagone della metropolitana. La tregua è finita, Kay seppur dall’indole pacifica non può far finta di nulla davanti a quanto accaduto, soprattutto se è opera di quello che un tempo era il suo migliore amico, Merra, cambiato dopo una tragedia che ha segnato la vita di entrambi. In tutto questa viene coinvolta anche la band dei Hands, attaccati sempre dai Wu-Ronz.
