“Misplaced faith in political utopias has led to ruin.nPeople and society do not change just evolve one way or another.nThat is the first thing going on.nGenuine ancient codes cannot change nowadays morality and convictions.nThen what really counts: friendship; camaraderie; good spirit; humanity;nand a bit of evilness disguised as Women.nWhen all seem chaotic, a light of hope brights in the end.nA Manga story made movie.nCamera work is very minimal and no intrusive.nOk movie to entertains for a moment. Started good then slowly lost momentum.”
