... James K Barath Thesis Statement: Specifically, I will enlighten you on the following three customs of the Yakuza: (1) Sakazuki, (2) Yubitsume, and (3) Irezumi. INTRODUCTION I. What was your first impression of when you saw me today? A) Well dressed. B) Overdressed. C) Member of one of the most dangerous and influential crime syndicates in the world? II.

Some would claim that the Yakuza were descendents from a class of gamblers and bandits, while others claim that they evolved from the samurai.

This is due to their vast economic involvement with senior executives in companies such as: Hitachi, Nomura Securities, and Toshiba. (U.S. News &
