As a child his recklessly wasteful and abusive father sunk the family into debt and disappeared, leaving Futaro and his sick mother to fend for themselves. With no money to pay for medical treatment for his ailing mother she eventually died. After her death Futaro became obsessed with money and willing to do anything for it. Several years pass and Futaro finds himself working at "Mikuni Shipbuilding" where he meets the company president's daughters Midori, who was his former classmate, and her younger sister Akane, who is wheelchair-bound, and like Futaro, has a scarred face. In a plot to acquire their fathers company, Futaro begins to get close the sisters. ~~{{english sources}}~~ ~~==Notes==~~ ▲{{reflist}} ▲==References== 『銭ゲバ上 (1) 』(幻冬舎文庫し 20-4) ジョージ秋山 (文庫 - 2007/10) 『銭ゲバ下 (2) 』(幻冬舎文庫し 20-5) ジョージ秋山 (文庫 - 2007/10) ==External links== [https://www.ntv.co.jp/zenigeba/ Official NTV website] {{jain ~~icon~~lang\|ja}} * [~~http~~https:https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1360719/ ''Zenigeba'' at IMDb] [[Category:Japanese drama television series]] ~~[[ko:제니게바]]~~ [[jaCategory:~~銭ゲバ~~1970 manga]] [[Category:Shōnen manga]] [[Category:Television shows written by Yoshikazu Okada]] [[Category:Nippon Television dramas]]
