Lady Yakuza Red Peony Gambler 1

Kyushu dusk. A thrown die. Yano dead in an alley. His daughter Ryuko abandons her yakuza ties, seeking vengeance with a telltale wallet as her only clue. Years pass. A crimson peony blooms on Ryuko’s shoulder as she journeys across Japan, encountering gamblers both honorable and corrupt. Classic Toei revenge film with a welcome gender flip.
