He Became the TOP MAFIA Boss After Being ABUSED | Banana Fish Recap

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. However, his inquiries are hindered when Dino sends his men after Ash at an underground bar he uses as a hideout.
At the bar, Skip, Ash's friend, introduces him to Shunichi Ibe and his assistant, Eiji Okumura, who are Japanese photographers reporting on American street gangs. However, their conversation is interrupted when Shorter Wong, one of Ash's allies, calls to warn him about Dino. Soon, Dino's men storm the bar, and in the ensuing chaos kidnap Skip and Eiji. Now, Ash must find a way to rescue them and continue his investigation into Banana Fish, but will his history with the mafia prevent him from succeeding?

That ending was heartwrenching and got a lot of fans up in arms. What's confusing is that MAAPA Animation Studio's official Banana Fish Character Chart for Episode 24 originally showed both Ash and Lao's deaths (turning the character's colour photos to grayscale and adding lines indicating who killed who and how) yet within 24 hours they turned Ash's photo back to full colour, removed the line from Lao to Ash, and thickened the line between Ash and Eiji. I've read a lot of sources over the past couple years that the studio was thinking about going off on their own OVA and the original manga ending to a timeline where Ash survived and we'd get a Season 2, but so far nobody really knows what the deal is. It is sad to think that after all Ash had been through that he would die so quickly by a secondary or tertiary character. Akimi Yoshida, the mangaka behind the whole story, gave hints in past interviews about debating on either keeping Ash alive or killing him off and explained she was in a bad mental state when writing the story, but assured fans that Ash and Eiji were love interests but due to anti-gay sentiments she was encouraged to choose the later aka "bury the gays" trope.

Ash deserved nothing but love and happiness after everything he’s been through is heartbreaking and awful. He felt like he was a monster but when Ejij came into his life he felt light and safe and that’s all what he wanted in the end to feel safe with Ejij.

Poor Ash. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@zenitzu6946]

You mean to tell me Ash goes through all that just to die and the information about Banana Fish is lost?! What was the purpose of anything

[@BugT-11]

The purpose was just to cause you pain, misery and depression 😃
Or that if you kill a bunch of people and get involved in gangs, you're definitely not gonna make it past 20😃

[@Kouki.lane114]

no no, the information about banana fish was revealed to the public, so that part was a good ending
