Talk:Bōryokudan

Whoever made the kumicho-succession boxes, good work.

Are the boryokudan groups listed in any particular order (membership, date of fouding, etc.)? Yamaguchi is obviously on top, but what about the rest?


 * "Designated Boryokudan"s were designated by the prefecture's public safety commission in this order. Ykz 17:51, 18 November 2005 (UTC)


 * I see you added the dates, that's great. And it brings up another question regarding the boryokudan which were "un-designated". For example, Kokusui-kai was recently un-designated because of its merger with Yamaguchi-gumi (the top gang is designated, so lower gangs are not individually designated).  Was this the case with the couple others that lost their boryokudan status (Shinwa-kai, Dai Nippon Heiwa Kai, Kyokuto-Sakurai Soke-Rengokai) or was it for a different reason?  Are these groups no longer active, or are they under the umbrella of a larger group, in which case what groups?  893

The Second Dainippon-Heiwa-kai ( 二代目 大日本平和会. kaicho: Katsuyoshi Hirata (平田勝義)) dissolved in May, 1997. Many of umbrella organizations joined the secondary organization of the Fifth Yamaguchi-gumi. The Third Yamano-kai ( 三代目 山野会. kaicho: Tetsuo Ikeda (池田鉄雄)) dissolved in April, 2001. But, a lot of members gather again, and formed the Sanshin-kai (三心会. kaicho: Atsushi Inoue (井上 厚)) in September, 2001. The Kyokuto-SakuraiSoke-Rengokai (極東桜井總家連合会) disappeared in the beginning of November, 2004. The half of the member retired, and the remainder entered under the umbrella of the Fifth Yamaguchi-gumi. The Shinwa-kai (親和会) based in Takamatsu, Kagawa and the Shinwa-kai (親和会) in the Sumiyoshi-ikka are another organizations. Ykz 07:37, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
 * The Ishikawa-ikka (石川一家. socho: Kiyoyasu Ishikawa (石川清康)) had joined the Takumi-gumi (宅見組. kumicho: Masaru Takumi (宅見 勝)) of the Fifth Yamaguchi-gumi ( 五代目 山口組) before October, 1995. Yoshiharu Ishikawa (石川芳春. Kiyoyasu Ishikawa's younger brother) who had become 2nd socho afterwards was killed in January, 2001. I do not know the recent situation of this ikka.

What's the difference between the Kyokuryu-kai and the Okinawa Kyokuryu-kai? As far as I know, both gangs are based in Okinawa. 893


 * The Okinawa Kyokuryu-kai (沖縄旭琉会) was divided from the Third Kyokuryu-kai ( 三代目 旭琉会) in September, 1990. Ykz 16:15, 24 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the info. I made stubs for both groups.  Do you know the reason for the 1990 split?  It would be useful to put that on the Okinawa Kyokuryu-kai page.  893 02:13, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
