The first 2018 issue of Kodansha's Weekly Young Magazine is revealing on Monday that Jasmine Gyuh's Back Street Girls manga will receive a TV anime adaptation.

Synopsis
A group of three yakuza failed their boss for the last time. After messing up an important job, the boss gave them two choices: Honorably committing suicide, or go to Thailand to get a sex reassignment surgery in order to become "female" idols. After a gruesome year-long training to become idols, they successfully debut, with overwhelming popularity, much to their dismay. This is where their tragedy truly begins. (Source: MU, edited)

Back Street Girls began its serialization in Weekly Young Magazine in March 2015 and currently has eight compiled volumes in print, with the ninth volume to be released on December 6. The series has approximately half a million copies of its volumes in circulation.

The moment when something like this absolutely not surprise you, is the moment when you realize how deep you are in, and how there is no way back.

Speaking about medium as a whole. But well, i guess some people will like this.

I'm not even gonna ask why this exists, or whose idea it was. Then again, it doesn't even surprise me that something like this is a thing.

I can see this getting some weird cult following, somehow, but I definitely won't be part of that.

This sounds interesting and unique. Anyone complaining about this better not have a generic series that comes out every season in their favs.

But I'll probably check this out.

It has idols, so something like cult of followers is probably already a thing in Nippon.


Again, it has idols, + its gender bender.

The authors are already starting to play on a large scale. I'm even scared for other popular trends, like imouto, yuri and Isekai.

At the very least, I'll argue that the premise is unique and hasn't been done before. Probably worth watching even if I got no idea where it's going to go. I mean I love idols and adding a yakuza element even if they are sex-changed would make the characters different from the norm, so it could potentially be a lot of fun. I'll wait and see I guess.

I'm surprised they aren't even traps, cause they usually go with traps in situations like these, and its more explainable, but here they're straight up sex changed.

Very bold manga indeed. Will prob be a short.

I've read the manga, this is lit, Thailand is Magical for their Transgender surgical skills, it can turn middle age men as Idols, but the best thing is the Main Characters doing their usual Yakuza Antics in private while trying to be cute in public, that Gap Moe Trap, damn this is a transcending version of traps, another step for Japan.

This has been on my PTR list. XD Honestly, knew about this already. Also, 10/10 on that summary. Like, so happy this is getting an anime also what a time to be alive when this and Banana Fish are getting adaptations. I think anime is becoming great again! This is some serious throwback to 80's exploitation. Been going on since Parasyte.
