The HiGH&LOW THE WORST film opened in Japan in October 2019. The movie centers on a conflict between the students of Hōsen Academy from Hiroshi Takahashi's Crows and Worst manga, and the students of Oya High School from HiGH&LOW. Hōsen Academy is often called a "pack of killers," who are all bald except for their leader. Oya High School are one of five in the "SWORD" area where delinquents gather. In the film, the uneasy peace maintained by Hōsen Academy's new generation crumbles, with many gangs now seeking supremacy over one another in a new age of conflict.
