Goosebumps Every Time Kabuki is Played

The story is quite straightforward, with a constantly evolving plot. It depicts the main characters' sacrifices and efforts to achieve their dreams, while selfishness takes over.

Yoshizawa Ryo and Ryusei Yokohama portray their characters masterfully. Each of their kabuki roles evokes a sense of pain and heaviness, befitting the kabuki theme they portray. The audience is drawn into and immersed in their roles.

The music in this film is sumptuous and dramatic, but it's a bit of a shame that many plot points could have been explained further, particularly regarding Akiko's fate, the fate of Shunsuke child, and so on. It's certainly not entirely plot sensitive, considering the film's length.
