Salary Man Kintaro

Kintarou Yajima is a man defined by a rugged past, having once led the notorious motorcycle gang known as Hasshu. After retiring from that turbulent life, he settled into a quiet existence in his hometown, working as a fisherman and building a family with his wife, Akemi. However, tragedy strikes when Akemi passes away, leaving Kintarou to raise their young son, Ryouta, alone. Seeking a fresh start and a stable future for his child, he makes the difficult decision to leave behind the coastal life he knew and journey to the sprawling metropolis of Tokyo. In the bustling capital, Kintarou embarks on an entirely unexpected career path: becoming a corporate salaryman. For a former biker gang leader accustomed to resolving conflicts through sheer willpower and street-smart instincts, the rigid environment of a modern office presents an unprecedented challenge. He must now navigate complex workplace hierarchies, demanding paperwork, and the subtle maneuvering of office politics. The central question driving his journey is whether a man forged by rebellion and hard labor can successfully adapt to the structured world of Japanese corporate life while remaining true to himself and providing for his son.
