As the Naito Shinjuku family’s split conflict deepens into even greater chaos, Reiji Toki (Yoshiyuki Yamaguchi) is defeated after a battle beyond human understanding with Kiyoharu Washio (Kazuyoshi Ozawa). In this dire situation where Reiji’s life hangs in the balance, a tense atmosphere begins to spread even within the faction supporting Taiga Washio (Haruto Ochiai). Tetsutake Yu (Takashi Kuroishi) grows suspicious of former violent crimes detective Shinichi Akiba (Yasukaze Motomiya) acting alone and locks him up. However, this is part of a scheme by the faction led by Akira Shiba (Kunihiko Ida), who wants to place Seiharu in power and rewrite history. Amidst this turmoil, Hideyoshi Ogami (Norimasa Fujie) steadily strengthens ties with the president of the Osaka Namba-kai, Masami Yukimura (Takashi Ukaji), and the chaotic three-way struggle intensifies!

In order to fulfill the fate and great cause of placing his sworn brother, Kiyoharu Washio (Kazuyoshi Ozawa), who had been buried in the darkness until now, as the 12th generation leader of the Naito Shinjuku family, Yuki Kanemaru (Masaya Kato) covered the office with flames and ultimately met his end in self-immolation. Just as he passes away, former 12th generation underling, Hideyoshi Ogami (Norimasa Fujie), is released after serving a long prison sentence. This leads the Naito Shinjuku family into a three-way struggle: Toki Reiji (Yoshiyuki Yamaguchi) and his faction who support Taiga Washio (Haruto Ochiai) as the 13th generation, the faction led by Akira Shiba (Kunihiko Ida) who seeks to put Seiharu in power and rewrite history, and Ogami’s faction. Finally, the president of the Osaka Namba-kai, Masami Yukimura (Takashi Ukaji), reveals himself, and the story is about to connect to a new bloodline!

The Naito Shinjuku Family, a hereditary organization where only those of the Washio bloodline can inherit leadership. Under a calculated scheme, Wakagashira Yuki Kanemaru eliminates the 12th-generation leader, Gunji Washio (Hitoshi Ozawa), in a bid to fulfill his fateful mission of establishing Washio Kiyoharu (Kazuyoshi Ozawa), Gunji’s long-buried sworn brother, as the rightful 12th leader. In a shocking turn, Kanemaru engulfs the Naito Shinjuku Family in flames and meets his end through self-immolation. As Shateigashira Hosa (Yoshiyuki Yamaguchi) pushes to restore order by advocating for Taiga Washio (Haruto Ochiai) as the 13th leader, the situation spirals further out of control with the release of Shuyu Ohgami (Norimasa Tomie), a former Naito Shinjuku Family member, from prison...!

Detectives Shintarou Sakurai (Sho Aikawa) and Koichi Hikage (Susumu Terajima) are partners. They are also corrupt and often blackmail criminal groups and seize their money.

Shintarou and Koichi are in big trouble. They then read an article about a pension fund embezzlement case involving 6 billion yen. The prime suspect of the pension fund embezzlement case spent most of that money, but he has 2.5 billion yen left.

A singular deadpan comedy, The Passion tells a story of a young woman raised in a convent named Frances-ko (Mayuko Iwasa), after Saint Francesco. Distressed by not knowing about love and sex, she calls out for a sign from above, but instead hears a voice from below. A human-faced growth speaks to her from between her legs, constantly berating her, calling out "Woman, you are worthless!" Mr. Koga, as she names it, continues the verbal abuse, yet Frances-ko somehow adapts, forming an adversarial yet symbiotic relationship. This bizarre film, based on Kaoruko Himeno's acclaimed 1997 novel of the same name, is skillfully directed by Ryoko Yoshida, lensed by veteran cinematographer Akiko Ashizawa, grounded by Iwasa's show-stopping performance and enlivened by the hilarious Kanji Furutachi, who lends his voice to the chauvinistic Koga. The soundtrack boasts an unmissable eclectic score by legendary experimental musician and composer Otomo Yoshihide.

In a universe where the Cold War never ended and growing conflicts result in the rapid advancement of technological warfare, the cyborg spy Mylene Hoffman of the 00 Organization battles the agents of the Eastern block in a game of high tech espionage.
