Description

Now in English! Straight outta the pages of Japan's hip, skateboarder fashion magazine Boon, Tokyo Tribes sets itself apart from the din of manga publishing. Manga-ka Santa Inoue's hard-hitting tale of Tokyo street gangs battling it out in the concrete sprawl of Japan's capital raises the bar for manga story-telling, transcending genres, conventions and even hemispheres. Laced with hip-hop trappings and packed with gangland grit, Tokyo Tribes paints a vivid, somewhat surreal vision of urban youth.

As the rivalry between Mera and Kai rages on, Kai runs into trouble on the home front--and on the homeboy front. While Kai argues with his father about his future, the rival tribe begins attacking his friends. When Kai gets the call he rushes out to the aid of his friends, leaving his father upset and angry. Kai's loyalty and pride towards his friends will lead him into trouble...and may lead to the end of his life!
