The movie takes place in Suzuran Boys' High, aka School for Crows, which has a reputation as the toughest educational institution in town.

I heard Crows Zero was received really well in Japan, and was number 1 for quite a while. Has anyone seen it? Two of my favorite Yankees are in it, Hisato and Yusuke Izaki, so I'm really interested in how they did.
