Synopsis:
After her family breaks apart and she ends in a detention center, a defiant teen fights her way back into the world through rhythm and rebellion, driven by a dream to start a band and rewrite her life.
Guess who's back with another fully subbed '80s Daiei drama? Yep, it's me. I've had this one on my radar for quite a while, it definitely feels like a sister show to Furyou Shoujo to Yobarete. Not just because several cast members return in new roles, including the lead Kazue Ito, but even the Sagami Aiiku detention school from Furyou Shoujo shows up again. Plus, Akira Nagoya reprises his role as Director Tamba for the first episode, which technically puts this in the same universe? :O Meiko Kaji also makes an appearance which is always great.
The opening track, 'Never Say Good-Bye' by Kahoru Kohiruimaki, whom many would recognize for singing the themes for City Hunter, is an absolute banger and one of the rare 80s Daiei drama opening themes that isn't a Japanese cover of a Western hit. As usual with these Daiei dramas, expect a killer '80s soundtrack, bombastic melodrama and plenty of delinquent hijinks throughout, just the way I like it! As with all these projects, this was subbed by ear, so please excuse any errors/minor omitted lines. Big shoutout to Farfromsleep once again for procuring the original DVD box set, so I didn't have to rely on the very poor quality RAWs hanging around online that are bizarrely missing the kickass opening. Enjoy all 24 episodes!
