Akagi |
Tokyo, 1958. A man seriously gambles at a
mahjong parlor. He's playing against members of the Ryuzaki yakuza clan.
If he loses, he must pay his debt through his own life insurance –
truly a game of life and death. With his own existence at stake, he can
only play passively, and the game comes to a head. Suddenly, a
mysterious boy appears. His name is Akagi, a thirteen-year-old kid. The
man senses a strong aura around the youth and decides to have Akagi
substitute for him in the next round.
