TOKYO TRIBES VOLUME 1 GN
by Santa Inoue
A hip-hop manga featuring beats, blood, booze, and lots of bling-bling on the streets of Tokyo! Ornate with hip-hop trappings and packed with gangland grit, Tokyo Tribes paints a vivid, somewhat surreal vision of urban youth. Rival gangs from various Tokyo barrios press each other for turf, leaving many a foot soldier bereft of life in the violent clashes. When the heat between two of the clans waxes personal, a bitter rivalry explodes into all out warfare. Manga-ka Santa Inoue's hard-hitting yet fantastical tale of Tokyo street gangs battling it out in the concrete sprawl of Japan's capital raises the bar for manga storytelling, transcending genres and conventions, and East-West competition.
