Yet the Yakuza and underworld exists and operate in some manner.
- pyuser583 6y agoYakuza is legal in Japan. Not sure what you mean by “underworld” in the Japanese context. Edit: my info about yakuza being legal is outdated. Japanese authorities have been cracking down on it.
- jki275 6y agoThat's true, of course. But the Yakuza are kind of an "honorable criminal" type. They don't foist their criminal actions on the general populace. It's a bit complicated, and doesn't make a lot of sense in the American paradigm. They're not like the Italian Mafia exactly.
