Crows Explode

Kazeo Kaburagi becomes a new transfer student at Suzuran All-Boys High School and steps into a world ruled by fearsome brawls. On his first day he witnesses a street incident when a passing town car clips a group of students, foreshadowing the violence to come. The opening ceremony features Toru Goura in a high-stakes clash that signals the unofficial hierarchy.

Before pursuing Ryohei, Wajima attacks him, and Kazeo delivers a precise knockout with a single punch, signaling he will not be ignored. This sudden display unsettles the established factions and marks Kazeo as a force to be reckoned with.

In the Doberman Bar, Katagiri Ken meets Takashi Makise, who ropes him into a plan that could realign Suzuran's underworld power. Ken's weary pragmatism clashes with Makise's ambition as they weigh loyalty against opportunity and risk.

Kenichi Ogisu notes that Kazeo has risen to fifth among Suzuran's fighters after the Wajima knockout, stirring talk of uniting to challenge Goura. Kazeo, however, resists joining any faction, preferring to pursue his own path even as rival groups eye him.

Ryohei intensifies his hunt for challengers, pushing the rival factions toward a broader street-level war. The tension spills from the halls into the streets and classrooms as every encounter threatens to tilt Suzuran's fragile balance.

Kazeo and Kenichi become embroiled in a street-side scrap with Shibata Hiroki, the top fighter from Kurosaki Industrial High. The fight underscores how the neighboring school's influence extends into Suzuran's turf and the larger war for dominance.

At the Nakata auto dealership, Ken faces eviction pressure from the mob while Fujiwara pushes a destabilizing scheme. Ken learns more about Ryohei's underworld connections and discovers that Ryohei's father belonged to the same world, deepening the stakes of loyalty and betrayal.

A quiet walk with his mother to the cemetery reveals Kazeo's backstory: his father was a professional boxer who died from in-ring injuries, and his mother's gambling and drinking add another layer to his guarded nature. The revelation deepens his resolve to master Suzuran on his own terms.

Kenichi and Kazeo reconnect at Suzuran and swap stories about their shared past at the school. Their reunion helps both men understand how veterans and newcomers shape present decisions, foreshadowing the alliances they'll try to form in the battles ahead.

Fujiwara is dispatched to harass the Nakata shop as part of a larger destabilization effort. He fans flames between Kurosaki and Suzuran in revenge for an old grievance with Shibata, intensifying the mob's involvement and the stakes for the shop's owners.

Goura learns of links between Ryohei and Fujiwara and confronts the threat, only to be struck by a Kurosaki student and forced to retreat. Shibata's confrontation with Fujiwara ends with Shibata's arm broken, signaling that the feud will not be resolved easily.

Ryohei's relentless assaults push Suzuran toward a breaking point, and Kenichi Ogisu is hospitalized as the violence spirals out of control. The campus and streets bear the cost as the power struggle tightens its grip on everyone involved.

Goura is defeated by Ryohei in a decisive clash, cementing Ryohei's status as Suzuran's top fighter for the moment. The loss shakes Goura's camp and reconfigures the school's power balance.

Fujiwara and Ryohei return to the Nakata shop and set it ablaze to end the Nakata family's influence. Kazeo rallies a new faction to reclaim Suzuran and teams with Goura to confront Ryohei and Fujiwara in a decisive showdown, with Shibata's warnings hanging over the confrontation.

The brutal, protracted final duel between Kazeo and Ryohei ends with Kazeo emerging victorious, clearing space to care for the battered rival and remove him from the Nara Gang's influence. Time passes as the Nakata auto shop is rebuilt and Kazeo is crowned Suzuran's number one fighter. The film closes with the promise of a climactic duel between Kazeo and Rindaman, left unresolved.
