Argument
Ash Lynx, a beguiling figure known for his striking beauty and unparalleled intellect, conceals a dark secret within his enigmatic soul—he is a renegade killer. For as long as he can remember, Ash had been under the twisted guardianship of none other than Dino "Papa" Golzine, a notorious mafia honcho who molded him into the merciless assassin he is today. Initially serving as a mere object of desire for Golzine's pleasure, the 17-year-old anti-hero has since broken free, establishing his own criminal syndicate with an iron fist, reigning over the treacherous streets. Eiji Okumura, a gifted young photographer hailing from Japan, embarks on a life-altering journey to the vibrant bustling streets of New York City. His mission? To assist in documenting the harrowing lives of destitute street children. Little does he know, his path is about to intertwine with that of the captivating Ash, the charismatic teenage leader of a notorious gang. Intrigued by Eiji's contrasting way of life, Ash, too, finds himself captivated by this enigmatic photographer. However, amidst the mesmerizing allure of the Big Apple's clandestine underbelly, a string of perplexing murders abruptly emerges, shrouding the city in an air of uncertainty. Uniting these gruesome crimes is a cryptic phrase that lingers on the lips of those involved—"Banana Fish." With deeply personal stakes veiled within this enigmatic battle, Ash, Eiji, and their steadfast allies shoulder the weighty responsibility of unraveling the truth behind this enigma, uncovering its origins, and devising a plan to eliminate its deadly influence. Failure could plunge their world into unrelenting pandemonium, forever altering the fabric of their existence.
