Synopsis of Banana Fish

Ash Lynx is seventeen years old and has spent his whole life under the guardianship of Dino Golzine, a crime lord on the East Coast, who has turned him into his enforcer and a cold, ruthless man. Tired of that world of power and wealth, Ash decides to escape and join a band of street thugs. There he meets Eiji Okamura, a young, innocent Japanese photographer who has just arrived from Japan. Soon Eiji is dragged into a spiral of danger surrounding a key name, "Banana Fish," which begins to shape both of their lives. The series airs on Fuji TV and features Yuma Uchida among its main cast.
