A month later. Genji Takiya has graduated. New fights begin to see who will climb to the top at Suzuran High School. Meanwhile, a battle against nearby Kurosaki Industrial High School begins.
It's time to go back to Suzuran High School. It's been a couple of years since Crows Zero 2 was released in 2009, but the crows are back and stronger than ever. Takashi Miike, who directed the last two films, has now handed over the director roll over to Toshiaki Toyoda. When I first heard about that my expectations went through the roof due to the fact that Toyoda was the man behind the fantastic Blue Spring (2001), a film which shares many themes with Crows Zero.
So, was Crows Explode worth the long wait? Of course it was! Toyoda has made a film that actually looks kind of pretty, with sakura leaves that blow through the air and shiny costumes with even shinier bloodstains. You can hardly take a breath before another three students has gotten their teeth smashed in and been thrown into some concrete wall, and that's what Crows Zero always was. A type of ultra-violent King of the Hill game between rival gangs and boys with stylish hairdos. It features an almost entirely new cast, making it feel fresh but retains the same general ideas of which the series is built upon. A strong third entry in the Crows-series.
