On a cold winters night in the neon-tinged district of Shinjuku, trouble is brewing... Akira Nomura (The Gunslinger) and Yoshi Tsukata (The Chinpira) are on their way to settle an issue with a rival gang when things quickly go South. On another side of town, Reika Suzuki (The Angel), daughter of Boss Suzuki and the most dangerous woman in Japan waits for her star-crossed lover, but romance is not in the air as she learns of an all-out Yakuza war that has erupted. Bartley and Cillian Cosgrave (The Irishmen) are exiled from Ireland to leave a life of crime and tragedy behind, only to be thrust into the criminal underworld of Tokyo. Meanwhile Kyoko Asami (The Domme) purchases a gun off of a private detective as she prepares to confront an unknown prowler that has been stalking her.
