A gangster trying to build a normal life with his wife becomes the pawn in his own boss's obsession. The show treats their marriage like it actually matters, even as the criminal world systematically tears at it. Sabu's desperation to protect what he has becomes the real violence here, not the yakuza politics that keep pulling him under.
Sabu is a gangster in Shinjuku, and he and his young wife Koiko want nothing more than an ordinary life together, though gang politics and shady deals keep getting in the way. When Koiko saves the life of Tominaga, Sabu's boss, he falls for her. Tominaga then starts sending Sabu on ever riskier jobs, hoping the police will lock him up so that he can look after Koiko while her husband sits in prison. Adapted from George Akiyama's manga, this two-episode OVA swings between serious drama and comic farce.
