If you’ve always been curious about the hype around the Japanese pop culture machine, Kamikaze Girls is the place to start. The movie is a wacky, frilly ride through Bo-Peep land complete with animated sequences and kawaii kitsch – an almost perfect cinematic shojo manga. TV drama staple Kyoko Fukada (think Ayumi Hamasaki on speed) and Anna Tsuchiya star as the titular ladies. The girls are an energetic, sniggering romp through the wilds of Harajuku.
