Kamikaze Girls - 下妻物語
Kamikaze Girls (下妻物語) is a 2004 film out of Japan. It stars Kyoko Fukada and Anna Tsuchiya.
The movie is about the friendship between Kyoko Fukada and Anna Tsuchiya. Kyoko is Momoko and Anna is Ichigo. Kyoko is a girls girl type figure. Kyoko is into the Lolita type person who likes to do girly things. Ichigo is a Junco (walmart type store) shopping, spit in your face, and loud girl. Ichigo is part of a gang of women that ride bikes.
The two meet up as Ichigo buys some knock offs from Momoko. They become friends and their lives are explored. In the end, its a coming of age story for both of these teenage girls.
Does their friendship stand the strain of 2 different worlds? Can a girly girl and ultimate tomboy stay friends?
