Synopsis

Seiji and Yoshifumi are the only members of the Muto branch of the Date Family. The two respect and love their leader, Mr. Muto, like a father, and the three share a firm bond. However, their fate is sealed when the Family becomes involved in a conflict. Muto is unable to pay his share of funds for the upcoming battle but tells the Family executives that he would fight at the front line instead. In an effort to protect Muto, Seiji has him arrested by the police. Ignoring the Family executives' mockery that "Muto escaped to prison," Seiji prepares for the battle and fights fiercely on behalf of his boss.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 14

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
