Kurosagi est un film basé sur la série de 2006 "Kurosagi". Kurosaki, le héros de cette histoire est un garçon dont la famille a été décimée par la faute d'un "Shirosagi" il y a six ans. Depuis ce jour, il n'a d'autre objectif que de venger les siens et s'est juré, pour cela, de détruire tous les escrocs de ce monde. Avec l'aide du vieux Katsuragi qui lui fournit les informations dont il a besoin, Kurosaki se glisse dans la peau de victimes potentielles afin de mieux piéger les escrocs de l'intérieur et dédommager les victimes de ces derniers. Pour devenir un escroc impitoyable, il a dû faire des sacrifices et, notamment, celui de ne plus avoir d'attaches et de dire adieu à l'amour. Cependant dès l'instant où il sauve Tsurara (qui allait se faire écraser par un train), les choses deviennent totalement différentes.

Obligé de remplacer son collègue malade au pied levé, un jeune Japonais est envoyé par son entreprise en Chine, afin de mettre au jour un filon de pierres précieuses. Le voyage ne s'annonçait pas des plus agréables et la réalité va, de loin, dépasser tout ce que Wada avait pu imaginer. En effet, dès son arrivée en Chine, il va réaliser qu'on ne lui a pas tout dit : sa société doit de l'argent à des yakuzas... et ceux-ci ont entendu parler des pierres. Ils ont donc envoyé un des leurs, Ujiie, afin d'épurer définitivement la dette : colérique, imbu de sa personne, ce dernier ne manquera jamais une occasion pour rendre le périple du jeune salary-man encore plus désagréable qu'il ne l'était à la base. Guidés par un vieil homme qui parle aussi mal japonais qu'il le comprend, les deux hommes vont aller de surprises en surprises, passant de forêts sauvages à des montagnes millénaires, au gré de tempêtes et de crues dévastatrices.

On the surface, Shizuko (Aya Sugimoto) is a beautiful and talented tango dancer married to a handsome and successful businessman Takayoshi Tōyama, but she is troubled by recurrent masochistic dreams and her inability to be sexually aroused by her husband. But her husband is heavily indebted to gangsters and yakuza boss Kanzō Morita also has a video supplied by Kawada, a disgruntled former employee, which implicates Tōyama in a bribery scheme. Morita tells Tōyama that his only recourse is his beautiful wife who is an obsession to his mentor, the politically powerful Ippei Tashiro. When Tōyama finds that Tashiro is 95 years old, he convinces himself that turning his wife over to him will not be a major problem. When he brings his wife to the supposed masked ball, however, she is kidnapped and made part of a private bondage show for the elderly yakuza chief and his twisted friends. Shizuko resists at first but submits when her female bodyguard Kyōko (who has also been kidnapped) is submitted to sexual torture and threatened with death. Shizuko is then subjected to a series of punishments including abundant rope bondage. When her husband repents and finally reaches her after paying the yakuza, her only response is "Do me!".
