Kamikaze Girls (2004)

a heartwarming portrayal of female friendship of girls that are seemingly opposite of each other in looks and personality

Momoko yearns to be part of the Rococo aristocracy. A shame then, as she was born two centuries too late. Ardent loner, Momoko was born into the Yakuza heartland. She feels, however, more at home in Versaille than in her distant town of Shimotsuma, Ibaraki. Her appetite for the lavish doll-like fashion known to its disciples as "Lolita" is insatiable. The uber-rebel, Ichiko, is a Bosozoku motor-cycle-gang member. On a fifty C.C. scooter. Laugh at your own risk before she knocks your teeth out. Her Pony-tails gang is one of Ibaraki's "wild speed tribes" whose teeth-rattling customized bikes are decked out with fibreglass shields and bannered backrests. She, too, is decked out in her elaborately decorated Tokkofuku boiler suits. In a world as colourful as Momoko's sweet-filled lunch box, the paths of these two incongruous girls cross one languid summer. Asses are kicked (and garments are embroidered). KAMIKAZE GIRLS: where Rameau meets the Japanese underbelly on the summery streets of Tokyo. Meet some different Girls on a Motorcycle that would make The Bride blush...

I watched Nana 1 & 2 many times. Memorable moment of this movie is I watched it in Hong Kong & still 1 of my favorite movie. I like Yazawa Ai other manga too Kagen no Tsuki/Last Quarter Moon & Paradise Kiss, both my favorite manga adaptation movies.

Both are very quirky comedy movies with unique and interesting creative direction. They also place a sismance in the centre where one of the two girls is rowdy/yankee-ish.

2 different personalities FL & this time Korean girl as FL in Japanese drama. Fukada Kyoko always my favorite!

I watched Nana 1 & 2 many times. Memorable moment of this movie is I watched it in Hong Kong & still 1 of my favorite movie. I like Yazawa Ai other manga too Kagen no Tsuki/Last Quarter Moon & Paradise Kiss, both my favorite manga adaptation movies.

If you are looking for something TOTALLY random to watch these are movies you are looking for. Both have super great comedy and both are super random movies.

If you wanna look at people with horrible hairstyles and sense of style and see a bit of non-committal violence (.. ?! XD) or see someone crash 'cos they don't have their type A license... Search no further. Both have good music. the girly variant is more hilarious and includes less defying of physics; less brawls, more frills

Same director using the same quirky style. However Memories of Matsuko has a much darker plot.
