Crows Zero sequel!!!

The cult of Miike is getting some good news this week. Yesterday it was announced that Miike’s critically acclaimed Crows Zero will be getting a sequel.

The story so far, from Crows ZeroShun Oguri is Genji, a student freshly transferred to Suzuran high, a school legendary for the out of control violence that dominates social life there. The students are banded into factions, rival gangs openly battling for control in the halls, teachers or any other form of authority absolutely impotent. It’s the sort of school nobody in their right mind would willingly choose to attend but Genji has done just that, transferring to the school with the goal of doing what nobody has every done in the entire history of the place: battle his way to the top of the heap, unite the factions and be recognized as the undisputed king of Suzuran, a feat his yakuza boss father tried and failed to accomplish himself as a student of Suzuran decades before.

Director Takashi Miike is again taking the helm, and popular actor Shun Oguri is reprising his role as the protagonist Genji Takaya. The story is set about 8 months after the first movie. Kyosuji is close to graduation at Suzuran High School, but one last matter must be settled with a rival school… this sequel is reportedly the story’s conclusion. Genke Yabe is also returning, though other cast members from the first movie have not yet been mentioned.
