The original manga, licensed in English by Kodansha USA, is described as:
Since before recorded history, ninjas and yakuza have waged war. In the back alleys of modern Tokyo, their blood-soaked rivalry continues. Brutal, outrageous, and larger than life—this series is a clash of raw power and will, like JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure colliding with Fist of the North Star.
