For generations, Japan’s yakuza operated in plain sight. These tattooed outlaws, bound by strict codes, built a criminal and corporate empire extending far beyond gambling dens and black markets into international weapons and drug trafficking, executive boardrooms, and even the highest levels of Japanese politics.

Join Content Development Manager Zach Jensen as he traces the yakuza’s history, from their origins as gamblers and peddlers to their rise as one of the world’s most recognizable criminal networks—and their dramatic 21st-century downfall.
