Zoku Otoko no monshô, Emblem of a Man 2, A Man's Crest 2, Badge of a Man 2
Second in the Emblem of a Man (男の紋章) series. Cover image on Letterboxd is incorrect, fwiw.
This took effort to track down - most of the series is on Amazon Prime, but not this one.
I ended up doing the following:
1) PayPal a friend back in Tokyo
2) Friend creates a dummy account on VideoMarket (Japanese streaming site, only available for domestic use with domestic credit card)
3) Friend sends me login info
4) Access the movie on VideoMarket via a VPN app with a Japan proxy server
No subtitles or closed captions, so some dialogue here and there I couldn’t pick up - nothing earth-shattering.
Still a fun entry in the series and I’m glad I saw it, but…
