Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The King of Minami series ran 62 films from 1992-2016, making it one of Japan's longest-running V-cinema franchises—direct-to-video pulp that outlasted most theatrical yakuza cycles.
This installment marks rare on-screen pairing of Takeuchi with Taro Yamamoto; they'd previously competed for the same roles in early 90s yakuza boom casting.
