Synopsis 100 minutes :
The unthinkable live-action adaptation of a
farcical manga which has been serialized since
the 1990s in “Shonen Jump Magazine” and has
sold approximately four million copies. In the
director's chair is Yamaguchi Yudai, an adept
comedic director who has worked on Battlefield
Baseball and other manga said to be unadaptable
in live-action. Genjo (Kurashina Kana), a
buddhist monk on a journey to India, happens to
stop by the home of an old man (Tayama Ryousei)
and old woman (Sasano Takashi) who request him
to rehabilitate the supreme juvenile delinquent
Yamada Taro (Pierre Taki/Matsuyama Kenichi). |
