![]() ![]() In the sequel, “Crows Zero II,” again directed by Miike, the boys from Suzuran are back, but this time they have a new rival, the white-uniformed students from another institution of higher punkery, Kosen High School. “Crows Zero” has its moments of comic relief, but many more scenes of all-in brawling, strobed like the battle scenes in “Saving Private Ryan” and accompanied by a hard-rock score. He and his allies defeat the school’s most powerful gang, led by the long-haired Tamao Serizawa (Takayuki Yamada), but in a mano-a-mano contest, Genji falls to Linderman (Motoki Fukami), a curly-haired loner giant who is the school’s strongest fighter. ![]() The plot revolves around the attempt of Genji Takiya (Shun Oguri), the quick-fisted son of a Suzuran alum and current gang boss, to unite all the school’s gangs under his leadership, which no one has ever done before. The heroes are students at Suzuran High School, where gangs rule the graffiti-covered halls.
