It exactly felt like reading manga.

Teiichi (his name means the best person of the Empire. Kanji is ideograph so it has specific meaning) is so ambitious that I like him a lot. Everyone in this movie acts overly because the story based on manga, but I didn't hate it because of talented actors who knows how to do it and how not to do it too much. Starting with Teiichi, everyone has a simple behavioral principle and its clearness is rare. The cinematography was interesting considering it's Japanese movie, the industry create movies with low budget and low quality, but targeting high box office. Also, the opening was just pure gold.
