Dead or Alive (DEAD OR ALIVE:犯罪者, Deddo oa araibu: Hanzaisha), abbreviated as DOA (Dii ō ei), is a 1999 Japanese yakuza action film directed by Takashi Miike. It stars Riki Takeuchi, as the Chinese Triad boss and former yakuza Ryūichi, and Show Aikawa, as the Japanese cop Detective Jojima, and focuses on their meeting and conflict. It is the first in a three-part series, followed by Dead or Alive 2: Birds in 2000 and Dead or Alive: Final in 2002.
Synopsis
Ryūichi and his small gang of triads vie for control of the Japanese underworld in a crime-ridden Shinjuku quarter, while Detective Jojima tries to bring it down. Jojima attempts to start a gang war between the Triad and Yakuza. Ryūichi and Jojima meet in a chaotic showdown.
Cast
Dead or Alive (Japanese: デッドオアアライブ, Hepburn: Deddo Oa Araibu) is a 1996 fighting game by Tecmo and the first entry in Team Ninja's long-running Dead or Alive series. It was released first in arcades, followed by home ports for the Sega Saturn in Japan, and later for the Sony PlayStation in all regions.
Gameplay
The gameplay of Dead or Alive was unique at the time of its debut because it featured different choices in gameplay than other 3D fighting games.
Its most defining features were its speed and countering system. Dead or Alive put an emphasis on speed, and relied more on simplistic commands and reaction time. Furthermore, its countering system was the first in the fighting genre to utilize different commands that corresponded to each type of attack. There are two kinds of holds, an Offensive Hold (OH) and a Defensive Hold (DH). The latter are executed by holding back or forward on the directional pad along with the guard input to either force away or counter-damage an opponent.

Dead Or Alive
by: Rebstar[Intro:]
Yeah... 100 hundred
You won't find me (you won't find me)
You won't get me (you won't get me)
You won't catch me (you won't catch me)
You won't (you won't...)
[Verse 1:]
Knock knock time to dip
Pack your bags and split
You don't wanna know who's by the door
Leave the stacks you won't regret it
Cause they say life is cheap even for people who afford
Louis, Fendi, Juicy Couture
You can't offend me you pussy dior whores
Forget me, there's more fish in the sea
I'm overboard, oh my lord, lord
I got the surname of a King I'm
So determined to ruleverything Y (why)
O-U-N-G Money, I think I'll sing
Until the day I swing by
Bye bye, end of words
Dropped out of law school, lesson learned
Stay cool or get burned I forever said it
They had no standards so I'm forever setting
[Hook:]
They wanna know what I mean with my rhymes
They think I'm gonna tell em, I'll never let it happen
You won't find me (dead or alive)
You won't catch me (dead or alive)
They wanna take what I'm holding inside
They think I'm gonna let em, I'll never let it happen
You won't find me (dead or alive)
You won't catch me (dead or alive)
[Verse 2:]
Every man's mistake will haunt him forever
So fast the past I cast away, cause you get
Paid today, and taxed tomorrow
So the cash in fact I'm a stash away
I lost one, learned a lesson meaning I lost none
That's the creed I believe in
But they just wanna pass judgement
Cause the kid did it big and turned nothing to something with a
Happy-go-lucky-I-don't-give-a-fuck flow
Black leather gloves stacking paper-cut dough
Dedicated haters standing in the front row
Who paid to see the show, praying it'll blow
But what they can't see, and what they don't know
His spark ain't in the lights it's deeper than that
Deep down in his soul, it's deeper than rap
So even in the dark you'll notice him glow
[Hook:]
They wanna know what I mean with my rhymes
They think I'm gonna tell em, I'll never let it happen
You won't find me (dead or alive)
You won't catch me (dead or alive)
They wanna take what I'm holding inside
They think I'm gonna let em, I'll never let it happen
You won't find me (dead or alive)
