Masculine Mirage
男街イリュージョン
Synopsis
Kyoichi Godo, a street gangster, is haunted by recurring nightmares in which he sees two versions of himself—one violent and impulsive, the other cold and detached. As the visions blur the line between reality and illusion, he struggles to maintain control. When he becomes entangled in a brutal power struggle within the underworld, the events unfold exactly as in his dreams. As violence escalates around him, Kyoichi is pushed closer to the edge—are these nightmares merely visions, or something far more real?
