[edit] Plot
Negishi Souichi (Ken'ichi Matsuyama) leaves his family's farm in Oita Prefecture for the bright lights of Tokyo.

I read some of the mangas when i first heard about the movie adaptation, if it's as good as them it means it will be awesome.

This looks waaay cool. It has Ken'ichi Matsuyama-sama, first of all, it's death metal(yay), and it has Gene Simmons! Yippie!! The costumes look fantastic as well. If this is a hit, no doubt we'll be seeing Johannes Krauser II clones at the next Anime Expo.

This one looks great. If the film is as good as the premise, this may turn out to be as funny as Swing Girls or Survival Style +5. Can't wait to see this and got my fingers crossed!!!
