The new series will center on the original manga's character Tatsuo Kuzugami who is the son of a yakuza crime boss. In his solitary life, Tatsuo faces many challenges as the delinquency world's strongest man.
The original Crows manga ran for 26 volumes, and Digital Manga Publishing partially published its sequel manga Worst in English.
