Shō

Based on the popular comic, “Shonan Bakusozoku” illustrates the lives of high school bike fanatics.

Akio, who works at a gas station, earned his large motorcycle license and finally got his hands on the GSX1100S KATANA he’d always wanted. Devoting more affection to his bike than to his girlfriend Risa, he silently continues to test-run the engine. One day, Akio meets Mioko, a tough-talking junior at Risa’s high school. She had a crush on Akio’s friend Takashi, but at the same time, she had caught the eye of Kikuchida, a member of a delinquent gang.

In Japan, the country that inspired the slogan "Born to be Mild," the blood of young men still runs hot. In the old days they'd go off into the country and hack each other up with swords, but these days, what with school, that isn't very practical. So some of them do something very un-Japanese. They strap on a big bike, roar around annoying people, and pound anyone they consider dishonorable. Now meet Eguchi Yoosuke, leader of a high-school Biker gang and the school's handicrafts club. Which means he divides his time between fistfights and fancy needlework. And if you think he's weird, wait until you meet the rest of his gang...
