Japan's Most Violent Biker Gang

Ойын-сауық

Japanese motorcycle gangs have wreaked havoc since the 1970s. Known as Bosozuku, these gangs have a violent history, raging war against rival crews and cops. Gang members roamed the highways, sometimes hundreds at a time, with an array of brutal weaponry, customized bikes, and distinct crew jumpsuits. Being part of one of these motorcycle gangs was a frantic lifestyle, one that could easily lead to grievous bodily harm, and death.
Youth were recruited from their early teens to join the gangs under the mentorship of an elder. It was of utmost importance to protect the reputation of the gang, to never run from a fight, even when grossly outnumbered.
In recent years, with strict laws and police cracking down, Bosozoku have become nearly extinct. Yet for those who were a part of the subculture during its heyday, Bosozoku will always provide a fond memory of the recklessness of youth.

I've known monsters, but in my experience they're in the minority and frankly I've known more of them who were living 'fruitful' lives. The worst and most damaging monsters enjoy safety from which to commit their sadistic acts. Many things in life lead you to regret and waste and yes many things are dangerous. Danger has charm.

    I left America at 18 when the military sent me to Japan. I can home for less then 5 years and moved back in ‘96. I grew up with so many guys and gals who lived that life. I remember the nights when Route 16 Yokohama would packed with Bozo and it was really a sight. I do not recall exactly when, but there was a fight near an expressway toll gate and on camera a murder occurred. They showed parts of it on tv. From my perspective, that was the start of the end of those type of events. The public was done with tolerating the nuisance that those gangs caused. The Japanese government made laws that drove the gangs into extinction. When I left in 2019, there were only the sort of cosplay type Bozo and there are very few of them. This video left out the female participants, which takes away from the story, IMO. I know a lot of good men and women who grew up and out of that life.

He's middle aged and now lives a less than exciting life than that of his younger days we all have that coming to us regardless of the lives we live in our youth. But I think it feels worse when nobody else is doing what you did in your youth I think it gives them a sense that something that you love is dying out and maybe he has some sympathy for the younger generations knowing they don't know what they're missing. It could be being the end of an era I can't imagine that being a good feeling.

    For years I trained in multiple martial arts to defend myself from gangs. Boxing, Muay Thai, Kyokushin Karate, Judo and Japanese Ju-Jutsu. Japanese martial arts always worked for me the best. Cuz for self-defense you can’t afford to hold back. I remember speaking to a former biker gang member of Japan and he said, they all had at least a good degree of martial arts training for fighting cuz they would fight other gangs constantly and carries tantos and wooden swords like the Yakuza. It’s crazy and scary. Don’t get into fights on the streets. Fight ONLY to defend yourself.

    Wow, I taught English in middle schools really close to Narashino in Western Chiba in the 90s. I had no idea this stuff was big in the area. I do remember that pretty much everyone you'd meet in Japan hated the bosozoku and the teachers at my schools were spending a lot of time with the at risk boys (they all had dyed hair - kinpatsu) trying to discourage them from getting into stuff like this. I think even at that age they all understood who was going to get high test scores and go to university (the only way to really get a good job) and who was going to be doing menial jobs for low wages. So I think some of the "bad kids" would see this as the only exciting alternative to a life of drudgery.

    The short documentary not only told a story of the bygone era of biker gangs, but it also reveals how the past gang members adjust to their new lives as they are not a part of the gang anymore. Our main guy, now working as a road worker, a working-class contributing to the society, although admits that his past criminal actions were stupid, he was still enthusiastic when he talked about the stories, as if he was still missing the life he had lived two decades ago. In the scene where he and another member reminiscing the history, you can see that he was holding his tears when he was looking at the pictures. He wasn't grieving for the past of the bangs, he was in sorrow for the past of his youth, his energy, and his dream. This is a story not only of the parish of bosozoku, but also the maturation of a man. Sorry i don't write very well but I really felt for him when I watched this and wanted to share my feelings.

    The english translation is slightly wrong, or rather not every accurate. The exact word he used was チンピラ (chinpira) which was translated as "hooligan" but it really pretty much means someone of the lowest or near the bottom position of one of these organisations so it doesn't really carry the same connotation as the word hooligan would imply

  • @klejzuh

    You're right, but GTO was more focused on the life of the ex-gangster who is now a teacher. Tokyo Revengers focuses more on gangs, fights, their coats, motorcycles, and the lives of teenagers as members of motorcycle gangs. The main character goes back in time to the time when he was young and wanted to be a hooligan, because the girl he loved in the future died because of the gang, so we have some fiction, but we have a more illustrated life of hooligans from motorcycle gangs and all that I mentioned before. We don't have that much in GTO. Hahah, I replied an awful lot to your short comment for which I'm sorry And of course I kind of agree with you as well, because GTO is one of my favorite anime, but with Tokyo Revengers it's just easier to understand that lifestyle and get more details about gangs. I wish you a nice day or night and may the memory of the bosozok, gangs, including anime such as GTO, Yoroshiku Mechadoc, Shakotan Boogie, etc., remain with us. because young people often don't know much about it or aren't even interested in it in the context of the anime itself. : D

If we see someone weird nowadays we just laugh at them and probably ratio'd them on twitter. Man if i were born in the 90's i'd definitely join those guys. Mainly because nowadays youngsters really are boring. It's sad but it is a harsh reality. Youngsters nowadays really are too busy thinking about this and that that we forget we are youngster and by the time we're adult we already miss the fun of being young. Really appealing the 90's and 2000's generation for their youthful spirit and living their youth to it's fullest. You guys really does have balls. And it is sad to me that those people that was called low life punk are sometimes some of the happiest people even though they have no money and no clear understanding on how the real world works.

    Ken Wakui (author of Tokyo Revengers) was an ex-delinquent, he was most likely apart of the Black Emperor gang mentioned in the video. That’s probably why Toman in the anime has the same morals/designs as the irl gang.

    Honestly, I dont even blame these guys. Japan has such a work-till-you-die society that there is barely any room for people to have fun with their lives. These guys got the chance to be themselves for just a small portion of their lives and its something they will never forget. Most people wont ever get a fraction of it for their entire lives.

I agree he is probably ashamed of his past, but also torn because he absolutely loved it and views it as a high point in his life. It is certainly telling that he owns his bike still but doesn't consider himself part of Specter, which I guess is just a "gang" of one now.
