Jingi 8: Intensified Internal Conflict

Hitoshi Kamibayashi (Takeuchi), acting head of the Kanto sand group, and Yoshiro Yazaki (Sakakibara), the chairman of the Kanto sand group, have made a name for themselves as big-name executives in the Kanto region after a number of proxy wars. At that time, Jin encounters an incident in which his old friend, who he met after a long time, is aiming for his life. There was a plot of the Kyushu Hiryukai, which was disbanded a while ago. Former Hiryukai young head, Panito, has been trying to advance into the Kanto region, and has teamed up with the Kanto Ichienkai subordinate organization, the Shinwakai, to hit the sima in the Kanto region. It was Hitoshi and Yoshiro who were in charge of the situation, but there was an unexpected fire of internal conflict waiting for them.

Directed by Noboru Matsui, Jingi 8: Intensified Internal Conflict leans on a strong ensemble — Riki Takeuchi, Toshihiko Sakakibara, Kaori Shimamura — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1996.
