Last Sunday I went to Ikebukuro to see the new Buddha movie, which is based on Osamu Tezuka's books. However when I got there the movie wasn't showing *shakes fist* so I had no choice but to see the Basara movie.
The good news was my Japanese is finally good enough to order a popcorn combo set :D
they had the Buddha box, but not the movie |
Caramell popcorn |

Despite how cool the poster looks, the movie itself was pretty disappointing. It turns out that Basara is actually a game and the movie was just commercial garbage in order to make money from the fan base.
Story recap:
The bad guy (white hair) says "RAW!!! Revenge!!!! I'll kill you all!!! Blablabla..." then he fights a bunch of random guys. One of the main characters (blue guy) is a samurai, gangster with an exhaust pipe and bike handles attached to his horse, who fights even more random people. Then he gets all of his gangster friends and makes an army and goes out to fight the bad guys and there was a giant cooking pot in the middle of the battle field which made no sense what so ever.
As for the climax... It was so boring that I fell asleep in it. By the time I woke up, the credits were rolling with random army guys dancing in the background, kind of like this:
