How did they become so powerful in Japan? Aren't they considered to be bigger than the Cartel?

legend tells they are the descendants of the samurai

Well for one, they had a huge opportunity to establish themselves in post-war Japan; the conditions made organized crime a goldmine, there was opportunity everywhere.

But the other thing is, though, they're actually very, very smart about what they do. They run their empires like a business, not like a gang of degenerates, and they are very good businessmen. It's actually rare that they hassle anyone who's not willing to consensually and knowingly engage in some illegal shit. They aren't going around terrorizing law-abiding citizens, if they're fucking with you it's because you agreed to gamble in one of their illegal casinos, or deal in some drugs they're selling, or become a prostitute in one of their prostitution rings. Not always, but it's the rule, and that limits the amount of heat they bring on themselves.

I recall that the last big mob war they had over there ended with 11 deaths. All Yakuza, no civilians, or even police. That's what sets them apart from other crime syndicates, they're just civilized.

they've been losing power pretty rapidly in the past few years, actually
these days there's supposedly a bunch of punks running around with western-style prison tattoos and dumb hip hop names.

>They're mostly legit business like the Italians
>They're ruthless like the cartels
>They have just enough code to not be nigger thugs
>They build up enough good will that people don't turn on them left and right

Lil Dingy ain't nothin to mess with.

your an idiot

>How did they become so powerful in Japan
Post WW2 Hiroshima child sex slave trade

They aren't. No.

They're successful because they aren't total degenerates and the people don't mind them too much because they don't make a habit of harassing the people.
They're your typical gang members if your typical gang members had business sense and an idea of the value or PR.

>Yakuza
>powerful

Pick one.

Samurai Maffia > Group of spic drug addicts
What exactly surprises you about this?

They're literally just a semi-private version of the CIA.

Semi-private in that they have many people in positions of power.

>the conditions made organized crime a goldmine, there was opportunity everywhere.

Can you expand on this please. What conditions?

>Mexican drug trafficking is estimated by analysts to be worth $13 billion US a year.
>spic drug addicts
>Sweden
Ok.

After the collapse of the Imperial Regime, the black market was the only established capitalist system in Japan in 1946. The absolute first thing they did was steal all the military/government owned assets now that the regime no longer existed and liquidated them, not unlike what happened the collapse of the USSR. Unlike the USSR and the Russian Mafia, the Yakuza worked hand in hand with the CIA for decades as a strongarm nationalist, conservative presence against socialist influence in exchange for a blind eye to various criminal financial enterprises.

The entire government collapsed and they were the only organized power structure in existence. Are you fucking stupid?

$13 billion only?

that's good for them. they did better by expanding into other markets whereas the cartels just run drugs. what's your point, Jap knob polisher?

Who gives a shit you nigger. You are always shitposting

The point was how a retarded drug addicted spic like yourself was bragging about a 13 billion net worth to a swed when the yakuza makes 80 billion annually.

do you not understand what false equivalence is, weebtard?

>tfw no comfy Japan bubble period documentary

The lines of people shaking 10000 yen notes at cabs in the beginning of Yakuza 0 was a cool visual

I live in Japan for about 5 years. Yakuza are a totally different breed of gangster. They are businessmen first and gangsters second. Therefore, they only do things that make smart fiscal sense. Like user up top said, they aren't going around doing petty shit or harassing your average citizen (even though I will say bosozoku, who are often junior mafia, are kind of a nuisance on the street.) Also, the Yakuza are militant towards the North Koreans in the area that the cops almost never want to deal with, so Japanese law enforcement sort of looks the other way as long as they keep pushing out NK.

I actually hung out at a skatepark with a junior mafia kid. He was covered in tattoos (still not socially acceptable in Japan.) He was a pretty normal dude, just knew not to ask him any questions lol.

Their homogeneous society has granted them a monopoly. Unlike every Western country they don't have to compete with blacks, latinos, slavs, sandniggers and other international criminal organizations.

>this spic monkey getting BTFO'd ITT

So say I go to Japland on vacation and gamble in one of their casinos. Say I lose and say good time then leave. Will they still bother me the next day or some shit? I'm a pretty big nigger and I won't hesitate to fuck up some micro dicked jap midgets.

>YAKUSUCK ARE SHIT AND MEXICANS ARE BETTEREST AT EVERYTHINGG!!!1!1!!1
>but one group of the Yakuza make 6x more money than the combined income of the Cartels
>REEEEEEEEE WWWWEEEEEEEEAAABBOOOOOPOOO
It's sad to see a salty mexishit come to terms with the fact that their travesty of a people literally can't do anything right.

They won't let you in their casino, dumb nigger.

I thought they were heavily Korean

yes they will. I've walked into plenty of Yakuza establishments. Your yen spends the same as anyone else's. Just be aware of whose place you're in if you're going to act stupid.

Straw Man: The Post
i dont even give a shit about the spics or the japs. you retards just dont know how to fucking reason like non-retards would but ok enjoy sucking suzuki 4 in pecker you homos

Jews, actually

My brother is Yakuza, and I've watched niggers get turned away just for looking like niggers. No niggers.

>implying they would let your black ass in
unless you're a multi-millionaire, good luck.

also, there's plenty of japs standing at 5'11"-6'2". You'd get rekt m8.

Only if you take out a loan from them and don't pay it back. The casino is there for you to lose.

Are you a coon though?

>a-actually I don't care about spics even though I jumped to their defence the first chance I got and refuse to accept that I was wrong just stop making fun of MEEEEEEEE!!??!!
lol k paco.

I kekked at this

Came from Korean immigrant gangs. Did black markets during stupid ass war 1940s. Richest group post war and bad hombres, so CIA picked them to rule Jap corporations and government in 60s

>comparing two crime syndicates
>tries to hide behind 'false equivalence' fallacy when because he lost

Don't be so mad, you mexican goblin, it's only a slight ribbing on the internet

yeah i really care about an organization i have no stakes in because im a cuck like some people

Your words, not his.

You obviously care about spics getting BTFO by Japs or you would admit your mistake and stop trying to use the nips as the basis of your piss-poor insults in favour of using the Yakuza as your basis.

Sorry paco spics are just irrelevant :/

How about Aum Shinirkyo? Most people know of the two big sarin attacks but they also released anthrax and botulinum and were trying to develop an atomic bomb

Also
>because im a cuck
Didn't even have to say you were, you just owned up to it out of the blue.

Remember to archive archive.is/jGYyj

They're legit business so go spend YOUR money all you want. Just don't borrow money, lose it, then try to walk away. Even legit casinos will break your leg.

Just bow out you've embarrass enough

>Sorry paco spics are just irrelevant :/
you seem pretty into them since you cant shut up about them. comparing a business thats in multiple markets compared to one that works only in one is like comparing walmart to a mom and pop shop or something. thats a false equivalence. if you want to compare all organizations that partake in crime then throw in the US gov that has a bigger military budget than anything the yak ever had

The newest Yakuza gorup, a splinter of a splinter, is trying to establish an overseas-leaning PMC and its oyabun wants to restore some traditional yakuza such as helping others in extreme need.

Because several communities are tired of them, and in turn they become more desperate. However, they still have much of the Japanese entertainment industry at hand (on the road to getting cucked).

Also see Kobe Yamaguchi-gumi.

Crypto-Zainichi are nearly the majority there.

>implying they don't have plans to subvert the Japanese live-action entertainment industry

I don't know where the idea thr Yakuza is dying came from but I certainly tell you they are anything but dead. Japan is a perfect place for organized crime to flourish especially the kind that has inroads with the goverment.
They are dangerous people who cleverly use extortion and many other coercive methods including violence and murder. The CIA has been backing them among other entities and they take full advantage of the poor state of economy Japan is in and the easy to intimidate hemogenous nature of the country .

They exist becuase in Japan there is no equivalent to the RICO (Racketeering and criminal organization) statute. There is no law in being in the Yakuza.

They haven't extended their reach into the US, and know that by doing so would being extra heat in the form of extradition.
They are big in Arms smuggling, prostitution and money laundering/loan sharking.

Money is money you tiny dicked redneck

>Just be aware of whose place you're in
The fuck does this even mean?

I'll beat them silly and fuck them in the ass in front of all their "gangsta" friends. I'm a badass.

it's because their leaders are all sword masters who carry a katana at all times

What JAV studios are yakuza run?

White and based.

And nobody wants money touched by an ape. I am Japanese, not redneck. You are red ass baboon.

> i am gonna beat up a gang of international mobsters

Sup Forums is 18+ nigger

Theyre not even close to the size of the cartel. Theyre mostly into white collar stuff, loan sharking, investment scams, stuff like that, pimping and drugs too of course..

Nobody is bigger than the cartel in the criminal world.

Just because you watched Naruto for 200 years doesn't make you Japanese. Stop role playing loser.

Good thing I'm 29 but seems you're still 4 years old with that preschool insult. Bitch all you have to do is knock out their biggest member and they'll respect you and not mess with you.

>They haven't extended their reach into the US and Europe, and know that by doing so would being extra heat in the form of extradition and freezing of their bank accounts abroad.
ftfy

Too many to list

And just because you are a monkey doesn't mean you are strong like the big nigger that rapes your father in prison. Stay away from Japan, smelly ape.

What about the chinese? They have manpower to spare and can get any weapon needed for their use. What do you even call their criminal organisations? How badass are they?

Would you stick your cock in the mouth of one of them heads?thats not gay right?

what makes you think they won't just ambush and stab you to death while you're on your way home?

>What do you even call their criminal organisations?
The government.

>n-no u
Good effort paco but 1 (one) Yakuza gang makes 6x more profit than the profit of the Mexican cartels COMBINED.
But according to you the spics are more successful and you literally can't accept that the Yakuza BTFO Mexishits.

Now you're even trying to bring up the American government to distract from how wrong you are! SAD!
Why can't you admit you're wrong paco? Does it really feel so bad to be of such a scum-tier people that you need to cling to bring the most successful degenerates? :/

Had a shipmate slap one of their girls. They abducted him and spent 2 days beating his legs with kendo sticks. He was a punk so I found it quite entertaining. Couldn't sit in a chair for a month.

Thanks for the motivation. I'm going to go to Japan and fuck so much jap pussy I'll raise the birth rate by 200% all by myself. So while you're jerking off your tiny dick to JAV you downloaded I'll be MAKING JAVs with all the sweet honeys in Japan.

There was a great radio cast about an American investigator who went to Japan to investigate the Yakuza.
After looking into their overseas Firearm and prostitution rings he got summoned by them on the threat of death.
They told him that distinct maner only found in the Japanese language of many means, "if you dont erase your report then else will have to be erased".

Triad.

>wall of text
i wonder if its upset. im not reading that shit you reddit kike kek get out

Enjoy your death, Trayvon. I hope it hurts.

>they don't run things like degenerates
It's almost like a homogeneous society means Japanese gangsters don't want to kill innocent Japanese civilians

Also you were literally the first of the two of us to start comparing the Yakuza and the Mexishits then when you're proven so utterly wrong it's suddenly a false equivalence?
You're fooling nobody paco!

Because of their honor and shit. Hell they might even make me an honorary member after they see how badass I am after I knock out 6'2 kenshin with a single blow.

Cute but they're suppose to have an official name like yakuza.

>I don't know where the idea thr Yakuza is dying came from
because this
>there is no equivalent to the RICO (Racketeering and criminal organization) statute.
is no longer true
>Japan's national Diet approved the revisions of the Organized Crime Group Countermeasures Law (改正暴力団対策法) last Thursday which allows police to designate organized crime groups as “extremely dangerous” and then arrest any member of that group, without issuing a cease and desist order, if he (or she), makes unreasonable or illegal demands towards ordinary citizens.
>The new law also allows the Prefectural Centers for The Elimination of Organized Crime to initiate legal procedures to forbid the use of organized crime offices, in lieu of the local citizens. The new follows public relations campaigns to crackdown on yakuza. The poster above, made by the National Police Agency and the Centers for the Elimination of Organized Crime, reads, "United in a Circle We Can Move Forward the Elimination of the Yakuza!" and was part of the 2011 effort dubbed the National Campaign to Banish Organized Crime.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triad_(organized_crime)

it's literally assassins creed type shit irl

Weather conditions. The heat to humidity ratio in Japan is perfect for establishing a syndicate.

Please go and live out your mighty black Rambo fantasies in a Yakuza casino, we weak white bois are no match for your supreme intellect.

you're

That's it. Are they a meme or are they legit? What do they do and do they clash with the yakuza? Who is stronger?

You are aware that the Yakuza is a criminal organization, yes?

>posts wall of text
>is responded to with a post that further rapes his tiny spic ass
>"h-haha y-you used w-w-words so I win"
Lol okay paco :)

The Triads you fucking coon

how the fuck does anyone not even know that

That's fucking amazing.

call the meme police faggot qq m0ar

except thst law isn't enforced and too broad to convict anyone. Which why they are trying to go after people with "tattoos" by bannin them at beaches, pools ect.

Also the big part of RICO is that people now we're compeled to come forth on the mafia and combined with the witness protection program it was very effective.

Show me where in movies and shit do you even hear mention of the word Triad? Yakuza gets plastered all over the place, even in anime and video games.

the yakuza are incredibly powerful and have deep political connections.

they're the cartel in ruthlessness, but SMART.

they lie deep in bed with politicians

nigga r u srs rite nao

they established themselves by running the blackmarket post war and setting up gambling dens. as they expanded they figured they could make more money by going into politics. Watch the Yakuza Papers or battles without honor and humanity they show how the yakuza establish themselves through out the years

>Aren't they considered to be bigger than the Cartel?
No.
The cartels are literally in the tens of thousands in manpower, and they have a large pool of recruits to pick from.
Not only that, cartels are very technologically advanced. Yakuza have nothing on cartels.

As if that would stop em. Japan police are fucking pussies and they let the Yakuza handle the really serious shit. That's just fluff and will never be enforced.

>the cartel

what is that?
if you mean mexican drug cartels, no the yakuza are not "more powerful" than the mexican drug cartels since yakuza generate less money

You are aware that killing civilians is bad for business correct?

>generate less money

Yakuza literally run legal corporations and are worth billions, aside from their illegal operations.

How many cartel leaders are legitimate business men that can travel internationally unabated? Unless Carlos Slim is a part of the cartels, I think Yakuza>Cartels.

>has given up defending himself and his poor excuse for a "people" (can't blame you if they're so worthless that the one point it takes to absolutely shatter your pride is that mexishits are bad at being degenerates as well as everything else) so now resorts to posting memes due to being too fanny flustered to let his pride take such a brutal raping on an anonymous embroidery enthusiasts forum.
WEW

Official yakuza member count has decreased though.

sorry, lads, but i'm going to trust this japanese ass japanese guy over you two chuckleheads
