Dont they chop off fingers as a sign of dedication iirc

I heard it was a way to show how sorry you were for fucking something up or dishonouring your family. You'd present your severed pinky to your boss as an appology. Apparently it's not done much anymore. I've played all the Yakuza games so I'm basically an expert.

I recently watched a great documentary about the Yakuza (on Arte) and apparently that ritual is increasingly considered old-fashioned among the Yakuza, or what's left of them.

Yes, it took eighty years but they eventually realized making their Yakuza affiliation obvious to everyone could hinder some of the criming.

how else would you show your dedication?

How do you show you are more dedicated than fingers in case you want a raise?

I've already given up my foreskin. Is that good enough?
