This is actually bad.
Up until recently Japan had the opportunity to keep the underworld under check. Unlike most organized crime entities around the world, the Yakuza isn’t a secret organization. It’s not illegal for them to exist. So they have offices, lists of members and associates, logos and business cards. The state knows them well because of it. They are easy to spot, tail, monitor. Ask anyone who ever had to investigate truly “submersed” criminal groups and they’d tell you that the hardest (and longest) part is figuring out who they are, their role, their culture, etc… in the meantime that organization grows.
This demise is paving the way for truly secretive organizations.
Most are of foreign origin (Triads, Koreans) and the Japanese government won’t be able to keep track of them as easily. These groups don’t keep open files and “records”. They won’t comply. Language and immigration will also play a role. Ironically, the Yakuza has spoiled the government and clouded its ability to deal with truly subversive and “invisible” groups.
I reckon the Yakuza is the lesser evil.

I bet they are crying in their sake cups right about now! LOL Tattoos were taboo in Japan because of the Yakuza. Now that tattoos are seen as something mainstream their business will surely increase. Especially if the Yakuza continues its downfall. The broken link between tattoos and the Japanese Mafia means regular folks can sport them without any strange looks.
