Notes | OVA, 1987, 60 mins. Prod: Studio Gallop. From a manga by Atsushi Kamijo. There is an interesting soundtrack CD. |
Classification | shoujo |
Synopsis | Punk rocker To-y has an intense rivalry with another musician, Yoji. Ambitious manager Miss Kato tries to push To-y into a solo pop career but he prefers playing his own kind of music. |
Review | You may quibble about whether the manga publication qualifies this as shoujo, but it contains typical shoujo elements and was in the Shoujo programme at Shinnenkai. It's about Tokyo punk rock musicians with, shall we say, a MOST interesting lifestyle. Different, funny, great music, great animation design, real locations; you should watch it. |
Credits | Dir: Mamoru Hamazu Des: Naoyuki Onda |
