A new drug called ‘Banana Fish’ has made its way over to the United States. Far from harmless, it triggers a berserk episode followed by complete catatonia. A pure sample of this drug happens to fall into the hands of the young gang leader Ash Lynx, who having lost his brother to it resolves to discover the source and get revenge despite heavy opposition from the Corsican mafia.
A crime drama with frequent action scenes, occasional comic relief, a few thriller aspects, and re-occurring yaoi elements.

I don’t understand it when characters in any show are depicted drinking milk directly from the container. My ‘gut’ tells me that you’d want to avoid contaminating dairy products, particularly with saliva.
Because the Japanese are clean-freaks, this strikes me as the director’s attempt to make the characters seem more Western, i.e. less sanitary.
Nice touch adding that link to the fascinating Corsican mafia, which I would never otherwise have looked up.
