SEVERAL MONTHS AGO…

ONIGAWARA PRISON

KER-CHACK

No one's picking me up…

So my group
has really bitten the dust, eh?

Always look up good deals in advance.

Right.



-You've gotta draw a plan before you shop…
-Got it!

Or you'll waste money--

Two Banana-Cream-Deluxe Special, please.

Okey-dokey.

Banana-Deluxe Special, right?

You're…

Torajiro!

The incredibly violent yakuza who was said
to be the Immortal Dragon's only rival…

The Steelfist Tiger!

Long time no see, Tatsu.

I heard you busted up my whole group
while I was in the slammer.

Thanks to you, I've got nowhere to go,
and now I'm a street vendor.

Why the hell…

is a punk like you
hanging around here, huh?



I'm a househusband now.

A guy who only knew how to fight
is a househusband now?

You fuckin' kidding me?

BANG

I'm a househusband,
and you're a crepe vendor.

You know our rules?

Let's do it.

A fight between two legendary yakuza
is about to start!

SPLATTER

WHAM

The Steelfist Tiger lives up
to his reputation! Real finesse!

Wow, look at that chopping!

He's really not skimping on that cream

or that… that fruit!

SLICE

Boss is doin' just as good!

Using the ingredients he just bought,
he arranges them real nice,

topping it with, well…

Yeah, right, that's it!

SLIDE

All right…

They did this and that…

And now they're done!

Jumbo Deluxe Tropical-Fruit Crepe!

Almond Jelly and Fruit Jam!

EPISODE 14

Wow!

This one's cool!

Are you looking for a family car?

Or…

Huh?

It's for me and my husband.

Oh, then you're probably
looking for a black Benz.

What?

Stylish shape!

Awkward for getting
our luggage in and out…

So big and cool!

Can't do tight turns
in a supermarket parking lot.

So fashionable!

The gas costs will hurt our budget.

This is perfect!

It's nimble, has tons of space
for anything, and the fuel costs are…

Hm?

No!

Excuse me…

How about this one?

This one is very popular with families.

You can have more trunk space too.

This is big enough
to easily fit a person, right?

Yes, I guess…

Would you like a test drive?

Wow, sure. That'd be great, right?

GLANCE

FWIP

KNOCK

Is this glass bulletproof?

No… It's not.

TURN

VRR

CLICK

CRAWL

Well, shall we hit up a shop with a sale?

We can't visit other shops…

Yeah, stick to the rules.

Look around carefully
and be prepared for anything!

Prepared for anything, huh?

Hm?

Die, Immortal Dragon!

-I'm backing up!
-Wait, why?

-He could be a hitman.
-Huh?

Shit!

SMIRK

Can't back up either!

Hey, what the hell?

SQUEAK

OPEN

CLACK

BOOM

Hit the deck!

SQUEAK

Miku…

Huh?

Sorry, but…

I'm gonna have to walk away
from this deal.

This is it, Boss.

Leave your shoes wherever.

Hey, Masa. What the hell have you done?

I'm sorry, Boss.

Saying sorry won't fix anything.

We're gonna clean this up.

But we can just do them
all at once in the machine.

Huh?

You amateur!

You got whites and colored clothes!
Sort out your turf!

You lookin' down on the colored clothes?

Sorry!

What the…

You screwed up big time.

Yeah, when I ate curry udon.

When you mess up, you've really
gotta clean it up straight away.

Get me some hot water, about 40 degrees!

Oh, uh… Yes, sir!

THUD

That white stuff…

Sodium percarbonate.

It's a cocktail of sodium carbonate
and hydrogen peroxide.

In other words, oxygen bleach!

This will thrash those stains. No problem.

Where'd you get this stuff?

From the hardware store.

And finally, some waterboarding.

You got it?

Oh, well, uh, if I'm stuck,
I'll guugle it!

This is where I spilled some juice.

This is ice cream.

This is mud, I think.

I'll take you all on at once, ya bastards!

Stay outta this, Masa!

Whoa.

That's my Boss, all right.

Just like the old days!

EPISODE 16

Look, this is so cute!

You're right.

May I ask how much is this?

It's completely homemade,
100 percent pure material,

and only 200 yen.

ONE MONTH AGO

WHIR

You bought a sewing machine, huh?

-What's that?
-Ice shaver.

To make me fit.

WHINE

It's getting a bit cluttered, isn't it?

Can't you get rid of some of
your home and personal gadgets?

Oh, but…

Well…

Yeah…

All right.

Why don't you try to sell them
at a flea market?

On the street, eh?

You wicked woman, you.

I'm what?

I got a stall set up,
but this business ain't easy.

Hi, Tatsu! Have you sold anything?

Nope, haven't had a single catch.

What are you selling?

Cleaning gadgets, kitchen utensils,
and some things I made as a hobby.

Wow.

Oh, I'm particularly proud of this…

Who the fuck said
you could sell this shit here?

Pay some respect to the Saruwatari Group
when you're on their turf.

But I got permission
from the facility office.

You what?

-You've gotta pay up, you--
-Hey.

Drop the violence, pal.

What'd you say?

This guy is…

the Immortal Dragon!

TREMBLE

Who the fuck are you?

Let's take this elsewhere.

Fine with me!

I used to be on your side,

so I know about turfs.

I won't send you home empty-handed.

Have a kitty-cat peeler.

This can peel anything!

Is he gonna peel my fingernails?

TREMBLE

You takin' the piss?

Well then…

How about this? A Shark Shake Blender!

Is he gonna make mincemeat out of us?

TREMBLE

Don't give up on me, legs!

What's up, Boss?

You cunning bastards.

This is a real gem.

This one…

I can bear this.

It'll float in ya bath water.

Water… Float…

COLLAPSE

Is he going to throw me into the sea?

Boss!

Please…

have mercy on me.

PLACE

EPISODE 17

It's about time.

Basil and chamomile.

Okra and cherry tomatoes.

Pasta, pizza, or herb tea…

What to make with 'em?

That tip off we got was right.

Looks like he's growing
some suspicious plants.

I knew it. I guessed
that punk was up to no good.

Let's proceed carefully.

No way, Nagai.

Let's bust his ass right now!

What?

I'll give some to Masa too.

CLICK

FWOOSH

Hey, Nagai, he's on the move!

What?

To where?

It's obvious.

He's going to sell the stuff.

He's a pro.

CLICK

I bet he'll try to move discreetly.

He's…

ringing…

someone…

He's…

going to…

meet someone…

That guy's got to be a dealer!

He's going to do it now.

He's doing it…

He did it.

He's done it, all right!

Let's bust his ass now!

Hang on.

We've got to be careful
and gather proper evidence.

Look, he's on the move again.

Heading down that shady back-alley.

What's this?

That place is closed!

Could be a major deal going down.

Let's cautiously watch and…

What?

BAM

Hold on. Don't jump the gun!

Police! Everybody, freeze!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MADAM CHAIRPERSON

What's this?

Um, a birthday party
for Madam Chairperson.

We booked the whole café.

A birthday?

Liar!

We know you made a deal
with that punk just now!

A deal?

You mean this basil Boss grew?

You can use it in anything,
like pasta, pizza, salad…

Trying to hide the real deal, aren't you?

You can't fool a veteran like me.

That case! The real stuff's in there!

This is moist potpourri,
a tribute to Madam Chairperson.

Moist… potpourri?

This stuff is moist petals
preserved in salt.

You're supposed to enjoy the fragrance.

When the smell fades,
you can use it as bath salts.

You know way too much about housekeeping.
