#CROWS ZERO CAST MOVIE#

Tamao is still bitter about his loss to Genji in Crows Zero and while the rules of Suzuran state that TamaoвЂ™s faction is supposed to fall in line under Genji, he refuses because he believes he wouldnвЂ™t have lost if Genji didnвЂ™t have outside help. While Genji and Tamao are no longer enemies (at least not outright) theyвЂ™re still not on the same page.

#CROWS ZERO CAST MOVIE#

Joined by newcomers Nobuaki Kaneko,В Gou Ayano, and Haruma Miura the movie has a massive cast of characters that weave together one badass film filled with action and attitude, while telling a fascinating coming of age story about courage and loyalty. While it did fall short in several areas, I still came away from the movie having felt it was a great experience and firmly establishes why Crows is one of the best properties in this genre.В Sans the Armored Front, the entire cast from the first movie returns most notably Shun Oguri (Genji), KyЕЌsuke Yabe (Ken), Meisa Kuroki (Ruka) and Takayuki Yamada (Tamao).

Crows Zero is the reason I got into this genre and similar titles like Bad Boys J, Sugarless, and HiGH & LOW.В So when I heard there was a sequel I couldnвЂ™t wait to see it, but given how high the bar was set by the original I was skeptical if Crows Zero 2 could live up to it. It has great action, a lot of attitude, memorable characters and some minorВ issues aside is the total package in my book. If youвЂ™ve read my review of Crows Zero youвЂ™re probably aware itвЂ™s one of my favorite Japanese movies. Will Genji be able to quell SuzuranвЂ™s internal strife and bring down Housen Academy? Or will he become a casualty in the war he created?Дirected by Takashi Miike, Crows Zero 2 is the 2009 sequel to Crows ZeroВ (2007) which is based on the manga Crows written byВ Hiroshi Takahashi.

When Genji attacks students from Housen he accidentally breaks the non-aggression pact and the war is on. To make matters worse, when Kawanishi is released from prison he is attacked by forces from Housen looking for revenge and he flees to Suzuran for asylum. Suzuran is on the brink of an internal war. Many students still doubt GenjiвЂ™s strength and even those who acknowledge his power refuse to accept his leadership. However, while Genji won the battleВ the war was far from over. After many hard fought battles, GenjiвЂ™s faction was able to defeat Serizawa and his forces. These enemies included a motorcycle gang called the Armored Front, the force of nature known as Rindaman, and the man closest to conquering Suzuran Tamao Serizawa. With the help of his mentor Ken, Genji forged many alliances but also made a number of enemies along the way. Heir to the Ryuseikai Yakuza, Genji set out to be the first person to conquer Suzuran and earn the right to lead his fatherвЂ™s organization. Sometime later a student named Genji Takiya transferred to Suzuran. Because of this tragic incident Suzuran and Housen created a non-aggression pact and both schools vowed to leave each other alone. When the battle pushes Suzuran to the brink of defeat, SuzuranвЂ™s leaderВ Kawanishi Noboru (Shinnosuke Abe) broke the rules of combat and used a knife to murder HousenвЂ™s leader MakioВ BitЕЌ (played by Kamen Rider KabutoвЂ™sВ Yoshiyuki Yamaguchi). Two years ago Suzuran вЂ“ the School of Crows waged a war with Housen Academy.
