Two Japanese survivors of the Khmer Rouge massacres in Cambodia vow to find a sanctuary, even if they have to build it themselves. Returning to Japan, they take seemingly opposite paths: one becomes a politician, the other a gangster. As Asami and Hojo work through the linked worlds of politics and crime in modern Japan, they don't hesitate to do anything necessary to secure their own positions and stay true to their vow. Loyal to no one else, they find their friendship increasingly tested as they rise in their chosen fields.

“DON'T MEAN A THING IF IT DON’T GOT THAT SWING.” WELL THIS MOVIE DOESN’T HAVE ANYTHING OF VALUE. While the premise of having two people leading seemilgly opposite lives [politician and gangster] seems intriguing the parelles between the day to day decisons they make as well as the reasoning behind their carerr choices falls flat. Survivors of a war would have scars and a very different outlook on life, money, relatinships, and even food and music but the choices the two make just seem too ilogical - even by anime standards. The excessive sexuality, loud music, and straight up violence leaves the viewer appalled, and perhaps a little deaf. There was a story somewhere when this anime was being put together but somehow the creators stripped it away and left behind a poor excuse for entertainment. It's 40% sex, 50% violence, and 10% jazz music. That's all there really is to this. SKIP WITH A PEACEFUL MIND.

This show more feels like it was made in 1986 instead of 1996. Everything about it screams 80's, from their stylish hair to the constant random, and i mean very random sex scenes. The show started off with a full on 5 minutes of sex....2 men make a pact with one another after going through some pretty hard times and even more to come. they lead very very different lives, one being a politician and the other being a gangster. haha very strange combo!Guns, hits, and lots of sex surrounded by mystery. Watching this is a little confusing at times but to me it is worth a watch but try to ignore the strange and annoying music that is played during the show as it's quite terrible.
