Shinichiro, black dragons

The first generation of the Black Dragon is the legendary foundation of the entire gang, laid by Shinichiro Sano (Maika's older brother). Unlike their brutal successors, this generation was shrouded in an aura of honor and strength.

Here are the key facts about them:

Founder and Ideals: Shinichiro created a gang that eschewed dirty dealings like drugs and murder. His charisma was so great that he controlled all Tokyo's delinquents and became a role model for future generations. "Living Legends": The core of the group consisted of the legendary duo Wakasa Imaushi (captain of the special forces) and Keizo Arashi (captain of the guards), as well as vice-leader Takeomi Akashi. Interestingly, before meeting Shinichiro, Wakasa and Keizo had been feuding as the heads of rival gangs, but he reconciled them. Symbolism: They wore black biker uniforms, which later became the signature look of the "Tokyo Swastika." At the time, the gang was more than just street thugs, but a true organization with a clear structure and charter.

Shinichiro Sano (Leader) The legendary founder, known as "Invincible Shin." Outside of battle, he was a distracted, smiling guy who was always late and could fall asleep anywhere. But his charisma was hypnotic: he didn't shout or threaten, but quietly spoke the truth, turning even sworn enemies into friends. His main philosophy was "giving people a purpose." It was he who transformed a mob of hooligans into an honorable organization, forbidding them to touch the weak or deal drugs. For Mikey and Emma, ​​he was not just a brother, but a deity.

Wakasa Imaushi (Special Forces Captain) A stern, silent man with a piercing gaze. Before meeting Shinichiro, he was the ruthless leader of the Akkula gang, whose symbol was a raven. Wakasa believed only in brute force and despised weakness. Their first battle with Shinichiro ended in his defeat, but Shin didn't finish him off, saying, "You're alone, I can see it." This broke Wakasa. Afterward, he became Shin's most loyal sword—cold-blooded, fearless, and ready to kill anyone who dared insult his leader.

Keizo Arashi (Captain of the Guard) Wakasa's polar opposite—an emotional, hot-tempered giant with a shaved head. He led the Scorpion gang and hated Wakasa to the point of shaking in his fists. Their endless warfare tore the city apart until Shinichiro stopped them both. Keizo is a pure, muscular warrior who acts with his heart, not his mind. He acknowledged Shin's superiority only after Shin suggested they not fight to the death, but "simply grow stronger together." In battle, he is like a hurricane—powerful and unstoppable.

Takeomi Akashi (Vice Leader / Strategist) The most mysterious and dangerous of them all. He wore glasses and was always smiling, but behind that smile hid a cold, calculating smirk. Takeomi was the gang's "brains"—he devised tactics, negotiated, and managed the finances. He wasn't as strong as Wakasa or Keizo, but he made up for it with cunning and an understanding of human weaknesses.
