Odo Yakuza Tokyo

Last week we were tipped by Anneke, our Journal de Nîmes contributor from Tokyo, about this amazing book. Years ago, photographer Anton and his brother Malik Kusters met a member of the Yakuza, the Tokyo maffia. From that day Anton started following them. Highly unusual for outsiders he was allowed to document their lives and places, resulting in this beautiful book published by BURN Magazine. Unfortunately it is already sold out, let’s hope for a reprint!
