Noblesse

After a slumber lasting for 820 years, Rai, or Cadis Etrama Di Raizel, awakens to find the world a totally different place. In an effort to adapt to the new era, he finds his servant who goes by the name Frankenstein, who is also a High School Principal in South Korea. Rai attends this school to indulge himself in the changes made in the world during his slumber, and attempts to befriend the students to stay in the know–as he will need it to benefit his survival.
Ikebukuro West Gate Park

Ikebukuro is home to many dangerous gangs such as the Yakuza, but it is home to Makoto Majima. The charismatic Makoto uses his influence to protect those close to him from troublemakers, without help from the police. However, a tragic incident puts Makoto in a tough situation: deciding between staying put, or becoming another victim of gang violence.
If the title of this show sounds familiar to you (aka IWGP), that is because it is actually based on a novel series that was also turned into a J-Drama in the mid-2000s!
