Tokyo Boy (Japanese Film)

I'm currently hooked with Japanese films mostly because of the hot guys. Nyehe /(#^.^#)\ But this one is different. I don't like the lead guy at all. (*^_^*) But he's fine.

Anyway, this movie is about Minato, a young girl who was traumatized at a young age by being abandoned by her parents and left with her senile grandmother. She frequently corresponds with a pen-pal named Night, a boy about the same age as her that she's never actually seen in person. Although Minato and Night are very different - Minato is upbeat while Night is brooding, they get along anyway and she regularly updates him on the happenings in her daily life. Minato is even willing to confide in Night that she's falling in love with a boy she's recently met named Sho. (AsianWiki)

Aww.. Sounds like a love story, right? Well, whether it's a love story or not, it's up to you to find out. Here's Part 1/10.

By looking at this picture, you might not have any idea why the picture is so. Or if you're really smart, unlike me, then you can figure out the story without even watching.

Yes~ Minato is none other than Maki Horikita from
Hanazakari no Kimitachi e. I think she's really
pretty in this movie.

However, if you watch the first half of the movie, you'll easily figure the story out. At times, the movie gets really slow and boring, but the arrangement of events is pretty awesome, so I forgive the boredom.

I just don't get why the title is Tokyo Boy. Maybe because he, not Sho but the other "he" (You'll get this when you've watched the movie), lives in Tokyo. Still doesn't make sense. Shame on me, an English major. I can't even analyze a movie title critically.

PS. I want to work in a convenience store in Japan! \(^-^)v

PSS. The movie gets creepy sometimes. I'm shivering right now. Haha :S
