I remember watching this (shout out to Vidiots) and experiencing Urotsukidōji levels of WTF did I just watch.

Miike at his peak.

Such great illustrations that completely capture the mood and tone of that most exquisite series.

In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune.
