Independent British distributors Third Window Films have officially announced and detailed their upcoming Blu-ray release of Takashi Miike's For Love's Sake (2012), starring Satoshi Tsumabuki, Sakura Andô, and Ayano. The release will be available for purchase online and in shops across the Unite Kingdom on June 10th.
Not exactly a director that plays along with genre rules, the prolific Takashi Miike now takes his talent in genre bending to the pure romance world with For Love's Sake a.k.a. Ai to Makoto, based on Kajiwara Ikki's 1973 manga series. An epic story of a rich high school girl who falls in love with a tough young gangster, Miike's take on the story breaks all the rules with musical numbers (with music by popular music producer Kobayashi Takeshi), tongue-in-cheek humour, and in-your-face violence. Starring Satoshi Tsumabuki (Villain) and Emi Takei (Rurouni Kenshin) as the star-crossed lovers, For Love's Sake is a unique and incredibly wild ride that will change your definition of what a pure romance can be.
