The southern districts of Nagoya, anchored by Minato and Atsuta Wards, embody the city’s industrial backbone. Here, vast port facilities, sprawling warehouses, and busy shipping routes define the landscape, blending with older residential neighborhoods and the sacred grounds of Atsuta Shrine.
This is where the city’s pulse slows but grows heavier, weighed down by the labor of commerce and the simmering tension of criminal activity. The southern districts are a vital battleground for control of Nagoya’s trade routes, making them a focal point for the Hanabira-gumi and Nagasawa-kai’s schemes.
