YES. got it in one, cheers.
Don't know to put this under Anime or Print Comic so I made an educated guess. Trying to remember a manga I was reading a while back, about a high school kid who kills his family, gets sent to prison, learns martial arts and turns into an absolute monster. It's not Ichi the Killer neither. Ring any bells?
