The legendary yakuza figure known as "Immortal Tatsu," famed for single-handedly defeating an entire rival gang with just a lead pipe, instills fear in both seasoned cops and ruthless criminals. Following a mysterious disappearance, Tatsu reappears with a new path in life. Now clad in an apron, he has given up violence and aims to live honestly as a househusband. Navigating everyday tasks like grocery shopping and cooking presents unique challenges for Tatsu. Despite his peaceful intentions, misunderstandings frequently plague his life. Gokushufudou chronicles the humorous and earnest journey of this former yakuza as he transitions from a life of danger to the role of a devoted stay-at-home spouse.
