- Plot: Plot : Takeshi is an eccentric high school student, who tries to live the life of a samurai in modern Japan. He is nearly invincible against villains, but he has one weakness - the sight of large female breasts make his nose bleed. A new male student enters the class (he comes to school in a fighter jet), and the two boys clash over a girl. This is not so much a story as a loose collection of vignettes. There are the efforts of Takeshi's school female friends to immunize him against nosebleeding. Many fights between the high-tech rich new student and true-believer samurai Takeshi. There's a panty burglar, a plan to foil some foolish bank robbers, cooperative effort to make a movie, and even a marriage proposal to Takeshi's mother by a senior yakuza.The film starts out as low teen sex farce (pretty tame stuff, though - just an occasional flash of bosoms), and jumps from story to story with little sense. The quality varies from extremely funny farce to very forced and flat. The acting is unrestrained, as it should be.Overall, not a bad no-brainer.
