Young Thugs: Nostalgia 1988
Kishiwada shônen gurentai: Bôkyô (1998)
1h 34min | Comedy, Drama | 26 September 1998 (Japan)
User review:
This was a pleasant surprise. As a sort of prequel to the film Young Thugs: Innocent Blood, which was a memorable but disjointed tale of teenage waste and wanton self-destruction, I wasn’t sure what to expect. But what Takashi Miike delivered was a rather sweet elegy to youth, though still packaged as a “crime movie” on the cover. It’s really not that at all, but more like Miike’s Radio Days, or a form of Stand by Me (though Radio Days came more to mind, especially as it deals more with sometimes-funny sometimes-not family dysfunction). It follows two of the characters from the first film, Riichi (mostly Richii as I could tell) and Isami, as they meet as adolescents and become friends, collaborating on a model of the Apollo 11 pod.

Mica spends most of his time there, giving guided tours to aging Garibai fans. But stranger still, Mica smells. He smells like fish. Numerous doctors, his life-long therapist and even his own parents are at a loss. No one wants to be Mica’s friend. Girls won’t talk to him. His life appears pointless, uneventful, doomed. That is, until Laura walks into it.
