Most likely it is from Keiken seeing as both Oshida and Ohara are in it.

Someone please tell me whether to buy this movie. I haven't the slightest interest in Sonny Chiba or gambling, but I like Yukie Kagawa. How's the music in the nightclub scenes?HungFist wrote:Wandering Ginza Butterfly 2: She Cat Gambler (1972)
Meiko Kaji returns in this sequel by name only follow up. She plays the same character as before, but the previous film is not referred in any way and the movies are also somewhat different in terms of style. The original found a charming balance between ninkyo yakuza atmosphere and mini skirts. Wandering Ginza Butterfly 2 also combines modern and past, but in a different way. Gambling scenes are plenty and feel almost as lifted from an early Showa era set yakuza film. Miss Kaji also spends most of her time wearing kimono. However, at the same time the pic is filled with club scenes, neon lights and early 70’s disco music, similarly to the Delinquent Girl Boss movies. The atmostphere is modern, even if many of the seminal elements have roots in the past. Comedy is also a major part of the film.
In terms of casting Wandering Ginza Butterfly 2 further closers the Delinquent Girl Boss movies. Tooru Yuri has a big supporting role – comedic of course - Junzaburo Ban plays an old man with a problematic father-daughter relationship, and Yukie Kagawa, whose absense from the first film was almost distracting, is given a rather unexciting role as a night club hostess. The biggest addition to the cast, however, is Shinichi Chiba. Chiba gives a very humoristic acting performance as a stammering small time goon who is a bit afraid of bigger players. Chiba’s action skills are put into use in the great finale where he and Kaji slaughter three times as many people as there are members in villains Fujio Suga and Hideo Murota’s gang. This is a great conclusion to a highly entertaining film that is more or less on par with the original. The storyline may not be very strong, but there is a wide variety of familiar and enjoyble genre elements on display. Fans of positively charged girl gang films should thoroughly enjoy Wandering Ginza Butterfly 2.
Synapse’s dvd is, once again, brilliant and above Toei’s own standards. Extras feature the same Kazuhiko Yamaguchi interview, Kaji biography and poster gallery, and trailers that appeared on the previous dvd. What is new is an 11 minute interview with pinky violence expert J-Taro Sugisaku. No commentary this time.
Sugisaku
Lol. I watched some clips and this movie is not for me. Thank you for your response, though. As for Chiba, couldn't pick him out of a lineup. He may be quite a fellow, but he is not in movies that interest me. Kind of like that guy who asked about pinky violence, "People watch this stuff?" Different strokes.HungFist wrote: As for Kagawa and the music, unfortunately I can't remember anymore.
Nice effort!HungFist wrote:A little bit something I got inspired into doing while taking break from writing thesis...

Hardly definitive, but I think I'm gonna blind-buy the DVD.
That's really odd, even if they'll possibly release SEX & FURY as part of Volume 2, as I suspect. Maybe there was some shuffling around of titles and they didn't bother to change the cover art? Frankly, the only good thing I expect to come from this release are the subtitles for IJOU SEIAI KIROKU: HARENCHI. Since both included films already exist as Toei releases I fully expect HK Video to follow their established pattern and just do shoddy NTSC-PAL conversions. The only two times they did genuine PAL transfers was when they were dealing with films unavailable on NTSC DVD at the time: ORGIES OF EDO and YAKUZA'S LAW.HungFist wrote:And yes, that's Reiko Ike from Norifumi Suzuki's Sex & Fury in the cover art, for some reason.../
Terrribly sorry that I can't help--was this ever even released on VHS? I'd desparately love to have this as well. Anyone know how many films in this series? The alternate titles mess me up.skeugh wrote:hey not sure where to put this but ive been looking for - Kokosei Bancho : Shinyahoso (1970) aka Girls' high school Boss : Midnight broadcasting...if anyone has this or knows where i can purchase it please let me know.... thanks
