Mafia Vs Yakuza

who did you think is the Crulest? and why? also if mafia can you said which mafia? since there is italy mafia, american mafia, chinease mafia.

I'd say yakuza...they make you get a full body tatoo and they cut your fingers off for sounding rude...lol ya fucked up...BUT the mafia will just shoot up someone....not alot of style so I go for yakuza ftw.

Fear the yakuza

Fear the FAKKU mafia!
Also, isn't Yakuza technically a mafia?
I choose Russian Mob cos they sound cool.

I'll go with mafia. Pretty cruel mother fuckers, sometimes cementing your feet and drop you in a lake to drown. Sick shit. Also, if you want specifics, I'll go with American mafia.



Apparently you didn't read the first post. The poster asked who was the cruelest, not who had style. Although I think the mafia's definitely have more style than the Yakuza.



Mafia is Italian gangs. So, no. They even had a law that only allowed Italians to join, but I think they changed it so halfers can join or someshit.

Yakuza - Full body tattoo is exciting~

i like less style but more work done so mafia

Mafia, they have their own ethic codes too and they take care of things fast and cruelly with their own method. Watch The Godfather trilogy (except Godfather III), it's awesome.
Yakuza is too strict with honor and stuffs imo.

The Yakuzas.

The mafia is just too western-ish for me.

No offense pals.

I vote for the Yakuza. Structured, disciplined, and they're not always after the money. Also values loyalty and dignity far more than the mafia.

And speaking of cruelty, they're far off crueler than the mafia. Ever heard of clannicide? They've done it. They can sabotage businesses they dislike or disfavor almost overnight. Offend a yakuza clan heir and you can find a whole decade of misery before you.

My uncle, who was stationed in Japan, had lots of horrid tales of the yakuza's cruelty as well. But dunno about the mafia. Mafia ain't even specific - there's the Italian-American mafia, the Sicilian mafia, the Russian mafia... and they aren't even really close to each other. Yakuza, on the other hand, is undeniably Japanese.

On a side note... where do we classify the Triad?

I'll choose mafia.

I'll choose the Yakuza!

I say the Fakkuza because the leader can ban you from Fakku and there is not many things that are crueler then that.

Mafia obviously... there was even this show where the they had the Mafia and the Yakuza duke it out. And guess who came out on top? The Mafia. Mafia is thee best there is no doubt.

That show is called Deadliest Warrior. And I'm pretty sure that's where this guy got his idea from. They did an episode on this exact match up.

As for which one is stronger, I don't know. Watching two groups of people demonstrate two different sets of weapons doesn't establish a whole lot. But that show isn't meant to be factually accurate, it's meant to entertain. I don't put much value in their decisions.

Mafia are definitely cooler though.

I like the maffia more. Suits and hats just do it for me.

Somehow I imagine the Yakuza being more like a street gang while the maffia are actual organized crime gangs.

Fuck katanas. Tommy guns and fedoras FTW.

Definitely the Mafia

Yakuza- because there is no better pleasure than the feeling of slicing up your enemies.

But I'd say screw both go for the fakkuza.
