Genji beating the hell out of the Housens!!! *koraaaaaa!!!*



"koraaaa!!!!" finally!!! I’ve waited so long just to get my eyes to this badass movie, fuuh what pain in the ass though haha =p Anyway, for those of you who haven’t had the chance to watch the first movie, here’s a little summary of it:

Takiya Genji (Oguri Shun), a newcomer to Suzuran All-Boys High School who aims to 'conquer' Suzuran. Genji makes a deal with his father, Hideo Takitani. If he can conquer the school before his graduation, he will be allowed to succeed his father as the head of his yakuza syndicate. But first, he has to defeat Serizawa Tamao, the "King of Beasts" and leader of the Serizawa Army and not to mentioned, the closest to conquering Suzuran High.

Later, Genji were able to gain control of his own class which was formerly led by Chuta and from there onwards, he made alliance with other of his fellow ‘conquerors’, Makise and Izaki, who eventually led to him one step closer to his goal to conquer Suzuran High.

And the rest I leave it to you guys to watch, no spoilers thank you =p

On the second movie itself, which was released this April, it centers out the situation 8 months after what we can see from the first movie. Genji is close to graduation and yet still far away from conquering Suzuran due to a decisive loss towards Rindaman, one of the toughest lad in Suzuran High and rumors has it that he hospitalized more than 10 men as a freshmen alone.

In adding to that, Genji encountered another issue with another rival school, the Housen, led by the ferocious Taiga Narumi. The rival school itself caused a stir and chaos towards Suzuran which eventually caused more burden for Genji and his fellow comrades.

Well, this is all that I can state as a summary of the story and the rest is up to you peeps to find out. Personal ratings for both movies, 8.9/10 ^^,V

I ended my post with double thumbs up to Takashi Miike who produced one of the greatest movies that I’ve seen so far =D
