Synopsis

Asuka, a wanderer with a magnificent tattoo on his back, incurs the wrath of the Bombers, a motorcycle gang in a port town, and is taken to their hideout along with Akiko, the bar owner where they are staying, where they are beaten up and raped. Nana asks for help from Saeki, who has returned to the town for the first time in five years. Saeki, who loves Akiko, who is now married to Shunsuke, breaks into the hideout and rescues the two.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 12

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.
