Black Lagoon

Synopsis: The salary Roke Okajima spends his days trying to climb the corporate ladder of his company, until a day when a commercial negotiation in Thailand goes wrong. During the poorly done agreement, he refines hostage to Lagoon Company - a bunch of pirate cruel mercenaries. Leaved to the whims of their captors after their managers refuse to pay their ransom, Rokurou does the unthinkable: instead of begging for his life, he joins his own team that hijacked him.

Now a member of the group, Rokurou should adjust to his new residence in the Dissoluto Hell landscape, known as Roanapur, a city where corruption and crime run unbridled, and even the slightest slip could cost his life. If it weren't for one of many crime unions on the island, Rokurou is also constantly in disagreement with his fiery colleague, Gunsling, Revy.

While Rokurou struggles to abandon his past-and more than just Lagoon Company's illegal trade profits on the line should quickly find the determination to make difficult decisions in high-stress situations, keeping his humanity intact.
