Description
Yajima Kintarou was once the infamous boss of the Hasshu League biker gang, who at their peak boasted more than 10,000 members, but after meeting and falling in love with a partially sighted girl named Akemi, he gradually mellowed and disassociated himself with gang life.
Unfortunately their love proved to be short lived when Akemi died in childbirth, but her last wish was that Kintaro would become a salaryman and raise their son, Ryuta in a stable environment. It's a request Kintaro cannot refuse, and after saving the life of the CEO of Yamamoto Construction he finally gets an opportunity to change his lifestyle once and for all. However, it seems the life of a salaryman is anything but stable when your employers are a multi-million pound constructor whose managing board is made up of corrupt ex-governmental ministers that are busy setting plans in motion to stage a hostile takeover and seize the company for their own nefarious dealings.

Life Of A Salaryman
Salaryman is a globally recognized stereotype of overworked, group-thinking, duty-burdened Japan. However, some salarymen in this collection might beg to differ with their often humorous, dramatic rendezvous and unexpectedly colorful adventures. Let's have a peek into their daily life, and their own ways to spice up the usual gray-and-gloom of corporation routine!
Delinquent
They are known to have fought against other students in other schools, they always have scars and bruises on them every day, and they are the most feared in school. They are known to be delinquents, juvenile troublemakers that like to fight people that get in their way and don't take school seriously. They have their own reasons and goals to fight. Whatever those goals are, they want to fulfill it with their fists.
