![]() Manga author Santa Inoue’s 1997-2005 Tokyo Tribes 2 manga series sequel to his own 1993 Tokyo Tribe manga is a unique effort to localize and adopt American urban black gang culture into a Japanese setting. Or do you think the rights are somehow tied up in that failed MTV movie?īefore even beginning to address this question I feel vitally compelled to assert that I intend no cultural or racial disrespect, nor do I suppose myself as any sort of cultural or racial authority and expert. ![]() Why do you think no effort’s been made to bring over the Tokyo Tribes anime and/or rescue the manga? The success of The Boondocks and Afro Samurai proves there’s a market for action anime with an urban theme, so Tokyo Tribes should be a shoe-in for a come-back.
