Yellow Scarves

The Yellow Scarves is a color gang that was started by a group of middle schoolers in Ikebukuro. The gang was famous for it's rivalry against the Blue Square color gang. Members of the Yellow Scarves would be seen with a yellow bandana around their neck or any other yellow attire.

History
The Yellow Scarves was founded by a middle schooler named Masaomi Kida and his group of friends. The Yellow Scarves sprung as a way to find adventure and have fun. They would go around the city in a large group and spend their whole day fighting. The leader soon began a realationship with a girl he met in the city named Saki, and in turn met the information broker known as Izaya Orihara. The Yellow Scarves were in a constant battle with the Blue Square color gang. Whenever Kida was unaware of what he should do, he would ask Saki, who would then suggest he talk to Izaya. Frustrated with the constant casualties the gang has taken, Kida decided to rely on the information Izaya could give him. This resulted in a turn in power between the two groups. The Yellow Scarves were in complete control. The Blue Squares decided to take drastic measures and kidnap Saki, the leader's girlfriend and dealing severe injury to her legs, breaking them so that she no longer could walk. With the leader of the Yellow Scarves helpless, Kyohei Kadota, after hearing what the Blue Square had done, defected from the gang and rescued Saki with help from his own group. Soon after, the Blue Sqaures disbanded and Masaomi Kida resigned as a member of the Yellow Scarves.

Current
Even with the defection of their leader Masaomi Kida, the Yellow Scarves continued to roam the streets of Ikebukuro. They maintained their notoriuos reputation by causing trouble and attacking people on the streets.

The Yellow Scarves soon found themselves helpless when rumors about "The Black Rider" and The Slasher inccidents began. In fear of them losing control of the city, they attempted to re-recruit their former leader Masaomi Kida, but he refused to return. He later changed his mind after a Slasher inccident resulted in his close friend Anri Sonohara being hospilitized. They came to the conclusion that The Slasher, The Black Rider, and The Dollars are working together. This made the Dollars a prime target for the Yellow Scarves. Their objective was to find as much information as they can on The Slasher and the Dollars, but not to cause any harm or trouble. The members, acting out of order began beating up anyone they would believe was a Dollars member. The Dollars took their first casualty when a group of older Yellow Scarves memebers led by Horada severly injured Ryo Takeguchi and sending him to the hospital.
