{{Nihongo|'''''Zeni Geba'''''|銭ゲバ}} is a Japanese [[manga]] series written and illustrated by [[George Akiyama]]. The series was originally serialized in [[Shogakukan]]'s [[Shōnen manga|''shōnen'' manga]] magazine ''[[Weekly Shōnen Sunday]]'' from 1970 to 1971, with its chapters collected into two ''[[tankōbon]]'' volumes. ''Shōnen Sunday'' was once specified as "harmful" in some prefectures when the series has started, because of its violent and drastic depiction.<ref>{{in lang|ja}} [https://www.nikkansports.com/entertainment/news/p-et-tp0-20081203-436023.html article from nikkansports.com {{nihongo2|松ケン今度は「銭ゲバ」個性的キャラ怪演}}], viewed on March 28th, 2009.</ref>
The story was
''Zeni'' means money in Japanese and ''
▲The story was that by extreme poverty, a boy named {{Nihongo|Fūtarō Gamagōri|蒲郡風太郎}} repeated murders and grasped money and honor.
A film of ''Zeni Geba'' was released in 1970, directed by Yoshinori Wada, starring [[Jūrō Kara]] and [[Mako Midori]], and featuring an appearance by science fiction author [[Izumi Suzuki]].
The series was dramatized into a [[TV drama|TV series]] in 2009, and was aired from January to March by the [[Nippon News Network|NNN TVs]] in Japan, starring [[Kenichi Matsuyama]]. The original story was released shortly after when [[Student activism]] was on in Japan and thus reflected such historical backgrounds as represented in its use of the word {{nihongo|ゲバ|geba}} in the title. The background of the TV series, on the other hand, was adjusted to reflect the 2009 world, including positioning of the main character as {{nihongo|a temp worker|派遣社員|haken shain}} working at a factory.<ref>{{in lang|ja}} Interview with George Akiyama:[https://trendy.nikkeibp.co.jp/article/special/20090204/1023364/?P=8 ''From "Zeni Geba" to "Seisho" (the Bible) - George Akiyama talks about life'' (『銭ゲバ』から『聖書』まで、ジョージ秋山が語る人生の極意)], on nikkei Trendy.net, viewed March 28th, 2009.</ref>
