Based on the phenomenally popular live-action Japanese television series, Ikebukuro West Gate Park is a very hip and urban drama set in Tokyo's trendy district of Ikebukuro. The story centers on 21-year-old Makoto, a cool and level-headed member of the G-boys gang. Makoto, talented at diffusing tense situations and keeping his friends out of harm's way, possibly stumbles into more than he can handle. Is Makoto really in over his head? His new girlfriend has just been found murdered, and a turf war is escalating between two rival gangs.
