I want mangas about yakuza or gangs and I'm looking for two types, the number one kind I want is the yakuza/gag manga not totally without some seriousness but I want to be able to laugh like with hinamatsuri
I would also like to read a serious manga that focuses on a guy starting from the bottom and moving his way up to the top of the food chain.
edit: romance is a plus as long as its not the main focus of the manga.
edit:edit: Something with host club instead of a gang is also welcome!

I was conscious only of following my fancies as a butterfly, and was unconscious of my individuality as a man. Suddenly I woke, and there I lay, myself again. Now I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man." -Chinese proverb from 3rd century B.C.
Look at what this guy http://www.mangaupdates.com/authors.html?id=930 has drawn, some of his titles focuses on the Yakuza, for example Sanctuary, Heat or Crying Freeman (including Russian, Italian Mafia and the Triads).
