You need to watch Tokyo Drift to capture the true essence of Japan.

That changes my perspective. I thought Japan was like Black Rain, where everyone carried guns and samauri swords.

Mr. Baseball was a really accurate movie about Japan when I watched it as an exchange student in 2001.

That's just in Kabuki-Cho. They are training hosts and prostitutes the deadly art of ninjitsu in preparation for an all-out attack on Roppongi.
