Ok but there are Italian American mobsters in California. They’re just not huge organizations where everyone’s name ends in a vowel. They are small, multi ethnic, disorganized and usually lorded over by East/Midwest Italian American organizations for their links to Hollywood and Vegas. Yoshitomi and Yakuza groups mainly focus on legitimate business ventures, securing firearms to ship back to Japan and middleman drug distribution (specifically methamphetamine) to SEA, Chinese and Korean gangs all over the states. If they’re whacking fingers off and saying shit like “shamefuh dispray” it’s not going to happen. But having spoken to IFM regularly on such topics I can guarantee if it’s portrayed properly it will get accepted. Just like the Northern Mexican discussion it just needs to be within the confines of realism. Is it likely an entire gang from Bakersfield or Salinas moves to Paleto Bay and set up Paleto XIV? No gracias. But a single Nuestra Familia representative or a small robbery gang hoping to roll some sureno drug dealers? Dias on the tiera, homie. TL:DR I want to rob surrats... But seriously focus on a background, portrayal and direction that is realistic and it will get approved.

Merry Christmas you buchiachs!
