Addressed to Japanese viewers, is this culturally accurate?


I watched the DVD with my mind in the 1980's, it was easier to accept the hairstyles and clothing.

I'm wondering, one thing that has not changed in time were the characterizations of the Japanese, they seemed to be portrayed sympathetically and not cartoonish. Even the renditions of the Yakuza respectful (bad vs good Yakuza). Is this a pretty accurate portrayal? Anybody from Japan have a say?
