Normal girl Yoshino Somei is furious when her Yakuza grandfather Renji arranges her engagement to Kirishima Miyama, grandson of another Yakuza family. Yoshino has no interest in being Yakuza but agrees to meet Kirishima. Travelling to Tokyo she moves into Kirishima’s family home and transfers to his high school. There, the girls dislike her as they have crushes on Kirishima. Yoshino becomes suspicious when she sees Kirishima covered in blood. After an altercation with thugs Yoshino sees Kirishima’s Yakuza tattoos. Kirishima drops his “normal” act and reveals his disappointment that she turned out boring, as he was hoping she would be as twisted as he is and satisfy his masochistic fetish for chaos. He offers to employ her as a prostitute, implying her only value is her body. Yoshino becomes upset, then feels worse when the girls vandalise her belongings. Renji challenges her to make Kirishima fall in love with her, before breaking his heart. Yoshino disappears for two weeks then returns and informs Kirishima she did “sell her body”, by selling her kidney for ¥4 Million which she throws in his face before threatening the girls. Her contempt activates his masochism and he begs her to marry him and ruin his life, disturbing her greatly.

Yoshino is informed Shiori, daughter of President Akaza, a Miyama business contact, is missing. Kirishima reveals the Miyama boss, his great-uncle Gaku, accepted him into the Yakuza at Kirishima’s own insistence. An Akaza employee is found dead and President Akaza suspiciously goes into hiding. Yoshino’s bodyguard Inamori reveals when he was 12 Kirishima put 20 classmates in hospital, so his parents asked Gaku to intervene, which is how Kirishima became Yakuza. By coincidence Yoshino spots Shiori in a club belonging to her grandfather’s business partner. It is revealed Shiori and the dead employee cheated the Filipino Mafia out of ¥500 million, so they murdered the employee, scared President Akaza into hiding and want Shiori dead. Kirishima insists Shiori take responsibility, which hopefully will avoid war between the Miyama and the Filipino’s. Filipino thugs burst in looking for Shiori and injure Yoshino. Furious, Kirishima savagely beats Shiori’s guards and the Filipino’s. Angry herself, Yoshino saves Kirishima by knocking a Filipino unconscious, thrilling Kirishima. President Akaza and Shiori are exiled from Japan. The Miyama and Filipino’s make peace and Yoshino is astounded to be awarded ¥10 million for finding Shiori. Refusing the absurd amount she settles for Kirishima replacing her hairdryer she hit the Filipino with. Kirishima spots a man watching him and Yoshino.

Transliteration: "Jigoku no Sankaku Chitai" (Japanese: 地獄の三角地帯)
Matsuo AsamiRika NakaseToshifumi KawaseOctober 21, 2024 (2024-10-21)
Kirishima brags about Yoshino to one of his lovers and is baffled when she tells him Yoshino being mad at him every day is not a good thing. Yoshino catches Kirishima watching her as she sleeps, claiming he wanted to see her face when she isn’t mad. Yoshino points out she gets mad because he’s always committing crimes. Kirishima is baffled Yoshino doesn’t care he has lovers and decides to change into someone she can love, so she will get mad when he cheats on her. Renji visits Tokyo for a private dinner of the Yakuza bosses from Kanto and Kansai. Kirishima reveals Renji is friends with Gaku and also Akime of the Ryuzetsu clan. The man watching Yoshino is revealed to be Shoma from Yoshino’s clan whom she has known all her life. Kirishima starts investigating Shoma. Yoshino reveals her plan to eventually break Kirishima’s heart to Shoma, but he advises caution. At the highest levels of the Yakuza Yoshino and Kirishima marrying is a first attempt to bring about peace, but if the engagement fails it could cause war between the Somei and Miyama, leading to a larger war between the Tokusa and Kiriyama clans who run Eastern and Western Japan. Shoma offers to kill Kirishima so Yoshino can go home to Osaka, but she refuses. Shoma leaves for a cigarette and is confronted by Kirishima.

Shoma is surprised Kirishima believes Renji has no plans for him to actually marry Yoshino but is using the engagement as a manipulation. Yoshino intervenes and Shoma warns her to be careful of whatever game she is playing with Kirishima. The next day Yoshino notices Kirishima has begun letting out his dangerous side again and fears he has grown bored of her. Yoshino asks if he is jealous of Shoma. Kirishima claims he isn’t, since her dating Shoma would actually feed his masochism. So while he is happy for her to cheat on him, it comes with the condition that one day he would kill Shoma. Yoshino admits she planned to dump him in a year and return to Osaka, but she makes him a deal, if he can somehow make her love him, she will stay in Tokyo. She also insists he drop all his acts and be himself at all times. The next day Yoshino catches a cold and Kirishima attempts to look after her, but she insists he go to school. Due to some yakuza business Kirishima is late home and finds in his absence Yoshino has worsened so he takes her to hospital. Half asleep, Yoshino notices Kirishima smells nice.

Yū YabuuchiRika MinaseIku SuzukiNovember 4, 2024 (2024-11-04)
Yoshino decides to visit her cousin Tsubaki, so Kirishima goes with her. Yoshino is concerned Tsubaki is exactly Kirishima’s type of woman. Like Kirishima, Tsubaki keeps several lovers and has no problem including Kirishima if Yoshino doesn’t care, exasperating Yoshino. Tsubaki also idolises Renji as the ideal man, despite him being her grandfather. Tsubaki deduces Kirishima craves attention from Yoshino in a way he doesn’t with other women. The school suddenly calls, reminding Yoshino she forgot to submit some paperwork, so she takes a taxi home. Left alone with Tsubaki, Kirishima reveals he knows her stepfather is a Director in the Doseikai Medical Group, infamous for illegal organ transplants, meaning Tsubaki is who Yoshino approached to sell her kidney. Kirishima is confident Tsubaki cares about Yoshino too much to actually do it, so she must have faked the surgery without Yoshino knowing. Tsubaki admits she never removed Yoshino’s kidney, she just took enough blood to make Yoshino sick and believe the surgery was real. Tsubaki is confident Yoshino is currently in no danger, but warns Kirishima she is perfectly capable of relocating Yoshino where he will never find her. Later, Yoshino is furious to learn Kirishima traded Tsubaki a photo of Renji as a teenager in exchange for a photo of Yoshino in a bikini.

Yoshino complains to Tsubaki that Kirishima is obsessed with her, not in love like he claims. Tsubaki urges her to find out for certain. Yoshino is irritated when Kirishima claims she is like a male friend. Former child actress Nao Shiota returns to Japan from America and plans to return to acting no matter who she has to hurt to do it. Her friends warn her about Kirishima who, according to rumours, manipulated the last actress he dated into doing porn. Unknown to them, Nao and Kirishima are former lovers. Yoshino and Kirishima visit Osaka during summer. Nao’s friend worries Nao’s ex, Ozu, has rich parents who own a modelling agency currently under scrutiny for one of its male models harassing female models. As such, she advises Nao to stay away from Ozu. Nao contacts Kirishima. Yoshino is surprised when Kirishima books a hotel rather than stay at her house. Shoma warns Yoshino about letting Kirishima do whatever he wants so she decides to do a better job monitoring him. Nao and Kirishima have sex at the hotel and she tries to ask about his plans whilst in Osaka, but is disappointed when she sees a photo of Yoshino on his phone.

Yoshino tours Osaka’s Womens College. Kirishima is baffled when Yoshino gives him a keychain she made herself. Nao meets Yoshino alone and casually brings up going to junior school with Kirishima, interesting Yoshino. Ozu meets Nao and admits he takes fees to arrange meetings between rich men and actresses, one of whom went to the police. He then abruptly reveals he knows she slept with Kirishima and other sordid details. Fearing for her career Nao agrees to lure Kirishima and Yoshino to a meeting. Yoshino asks Kirishima about his past, though she suspects most of his answers were lies. Kirishima is summoned to a hotel by Nao. Kirishima reveals to Nao he has been manipulating her to meet with Ozu. He also reveals that while he did date an actress from Ozu’s agency it was Ozu forcing her into porn along with other actresses, all of whom vanished, presumably killed by Ozu. He also suspects Ozu plans to do the same thing to Nao. Nao admits she lured Yoshino to another location for Ozu. Kirishima calls Yoshino and is relieved Yoshino was too suspicious of his behaviour to fall for Nao’s set up. Instead of going where Nao told her to she decided to follow and monitor Ozu.
