Crows Zero II

2009 · 133 min

A bruising, boisterous plunge into teenage gang warfare where loyalty and pride collide in stylised, hard-hitting brawls.

Overview
Genji and his victorious G.P.S. alliance find themselves facing down a new challenge by the students of Hosen Academy, feared by everyone as 'The Army of Killers.' The two schools, in fact, have a history of bad blood between them. And the simmering embers of hatred are about to flare up again, burning away any last remnants of the truce they had so rigorously observed until now.
