Synopsis | A story about a punk rock band, the lead singer, To-y, and a tomboy who follows them around. The band are as much into fighting as into music, and To-y attracts the attention of a powerful music producer by punching out her protege, who is being groomed for idol status. |
Review | To-y's cousin, Sonoko, also a singer, looks completely feminine in the manga (and is pursued by her lecherous manager), but is in fact a male... There is also an excellent OVA version with a splendid soundtrack performed by various Tokyo rock bands. The drawing by Kamijo (who showed what he could really do in the later SEX) is good even if you can't access a translation. |
References | Also an OVA & soundtrack CD. |
