Aslan Jade Callenreese, known as Ash Lynx, was a runaway picked off the streets of New York City and raised by the infamous godfather of the mafia, Dino Golzine.
Now 17 years old and the boss of his own gang, Ash begins investigating the mysterious "Banana Fish"; the same two words his older brother Griffin, has muttered since his return from the Iraq War.
Soon he meets Shunichi Ibe, Eiji Okumura, and Kazuya Okumura; Eiji's twin sister.
⚡️____________+_____________⚡️
Kazuya Okumura; Eiji's sweet and kind yet sassy and adventurous twin sister has always been up for something new, and she's ready to turn things around from her traumatic childhood events.
Her and Eiji have always stuck together, through thick and thin. So when Ibe brings her and her brother along to "America's City, The City that Never Sleeps" also known as New York City, she's thrilled to be in another country for a fresh start; where no one pities her for what happened during her youth.
She can't wait to meet the locals, hopefully find a boyfriend, and experience American life. However, Eiji, Ash, and her get wrapped into a war with a Mafia and fighting for their lives to put an end to Banana Fish, once and for all.
*!! I don't own BANANA FISH nor it's plot or characters I only own Kazuya and the plot points i make !!*
⚠️this story will contain blood, and some other triggering stuff⚠️
Y/n L/n, an 18 year old teenager who usually wore a cold and rude demeanour towards everyone she encountered. In the public library of NYC, she encountered a certain blonde and slowly started seeing him as a friend which she resented at first. After sticking up together with each other as moral support and acquaintances, they realise they have more things in common other than being book nerds and friends. The fact they're somehow both connected to the Corsican Mafia doesn't go unnoticed either and they plot a revenge against their enemy.
___________
⚠️TW: suicide, rape, depression ⚠️
(I'll be talking about bitter subjects like these in my book, the consequences off the events that played in Ash's and y/n's life since banana fish isn't exactly a happy show.)
This book is based on Banana Fish, so I'll assume you're reading this after watching the show. So I don't own the characters nor the main story plot. The plot is mostly based on Banana Fish but altered by y/n, who's kinda based on me.
Oh and this book leans in to a somewhat poc and female reader!
