    My father was a Yakuza. My mom worked as a hostess in Japan back in the 90s the pay was decent but her visa was soon to end. So she went and married my Dad. Soon enough I was conceived but my Dad hurried to get my Mom out of Japan worrying about her "safety". So I was born in my mom's country My dad would send my mother money and gifts. He came to our house for my birthday when I was three, don't remember much about it though. My mom went crazy because of his "unfortunate accident" And completely lost her mind. Dad was left with poor old 4 year old me so I was brought to Japan in 2005. I wasn't going to kindergarten and stayed at home he'd bring me to parks and festivals periodically. One day I met his Co-workers didn't understand anything what they were saying it was like a thick Japanese accent and I only knew little Japanese (my dad talked to me in my country's Language at home so I wasn't affluent). Starting then I was brought to work by my Dad. While my uncles cheer me up the other room is filled with blood curdling screams every time at that point I knew what his "work" was. I turned six and I met my dad's boss "Grandpa" outside our house basically treated me like his grandchild my Dad well he wasn't fond of it. Me and my dad went shopping for a bag it just so happened to be my Grandpa was there he bought me the bags and school stationary stuff. I went to class till I was eight my Dad left to the Yakuza. We left to go to the to my mom's country. My dad now works now as a translator while I'm now in my senior year. The Yakuza is a really shadey group but to my father it's just a distant memory.

    People like to compare the Yakuza to the more glamorized, more 'Hollywood-esk' Mafia but I'll tell you this: The presence of the Yakuza, based only on what I have been told by people who have lived in Japan as English teachers (which is apparently the easiest job to get for a Caucasian person wanting to live in Japan) is a LOT stronger and a lot deeper than the Mafia presence in the United States. You could practically point to a branch of government and know that in someway, they have been influenced by a Yakuza presence, no matter how weak or strong. They seem to have a hand in everything. While I myself do not know the truths behind these tales, I do not see them in a glamorous light. There are just so many things I won't ever wish to poke my nose in and this is one of them. They are not the cool, suit wearing, bank robbing bad guys from those action films.
    Apparently the presence is so strong that hotels, especially the traditional lodgings in Kyoto, will refuse people access to their natural hot spring outdoor baths/pools if you have a tattoo because its safer then saying they forbid Yakuza, which is the real reason they don't want people with tattoo's to use their facilities. Even the travel agent made mention of this (albeit briefly mentioned)

    The second one was so gross. As a woman, every time I hear about rapists "persuading" (more like forcing) women to go with them to have "sex" with them just fills me with rage. The third story had me feeling the same. If it was indeed a woman turning down a man and that was his response, then that's just disgusting toxic masculinity/misogyny. So gross. The fact that Yakuza has no problem with rapists is no surprise, but its still disturbing hearing about it.

    Despite being nothing but scum bags these days, at least the Mafia started out as a type of law enforcement agency for the regions of Italy in which they started. The Yakuza are just brutal thugs with absolutely no redeemable qualities whatsoever. If any organization ever deserved to be wiped off the face of the earth, it is surely them. I'm not even close to a violent person, but I wouldn't have a problem with certain Yakuza being summarily shot off into outer space and left there, all alone, with limited food and air.

    • @star3catcherSEQUEL
      @star3catcherSEQUEL 8 років тому +3

      True. The Italian mafia arose during a time when the central Italian government was very disorganized and fuzzy as to who exactly was in charge, meaning there was very little time or resources to send protection to small towns and villages, and the strongest locals had to take things into their own hands. It doesn't make what they do now right, but at least it's understandable.

    I'm not saying they were yakuza, but I found it rather strange that the most flamboyant cars I've seen in Japan (we were cruising the west coast, so rather rural communities) seemed to hang out in the harbors.
