Takuro, the guitarist of a struggling rock band, lives by the motto "punk or death." His world tilts when pop idol Saki approaches him after a gig with an unexpected request: to write a song for her. Their collaboration becomes a collision of two universes—the raw, uncompromising underground and the polished machinery of the mainstream music industry. Forced to work together, they grapple with the essence of artistry, commercialism, and whether one can stay true to their core while making concessions.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film deftly walks the line between lighthearted comedy and a thoughtful coming-of-age drama, avoiding heavy-handed moralizing. The energetic live performances and vibrant soundtrack create an authentic, immersive feel for the music scene.

What lingers after the credits roll is not just a tale about music, but a genuine conversation about the choice every artist eventually faces: to burn brightly in a small circle or to seek a wider path at the risk of losing a part of oneself. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Yū Irie

The buzz of overdriven guitars, dusty live houses, neon-lit streets, and the restless energy of youth finding its voice.
