Swing Girls (and a boy)

Well, I just finished Swing Girls. It was a pretty good movie, entertaining. And it had Juri-chan :mrgreen:. Juri-chan was beautiful...although I did kind of like Shihori. She doesn't have the most beautiful face IMO, but her body...damn...:beaten:. Er, how old was she in that? :sweat:

As far as the plot holes...I usually don't like my art bound by logic and rules. :metaldevil:

At the time (2004), Kajiya Shihori was 19.

As far as the plot holes...

If I'm entertained, I don't give a hoot about plot holes... I notice 'em and move on... Pointless to dwell on it.

Oh good, now I don't feel as dirty :beaten:

Yeah...art ain't science.

Personally, Juri-chan is cute in this movie, but she's more beautiful in Nodame...more womanly charm. :mrgreen:

She's also sillier in Nodame... ;)

In Swing Girls, you can see her potential and charisma. :victory:

Well, I meant more the way she looks in general now, she looks more mature. But yeah, I can see her acting talent in Swing Girls.

Yup.

Though the pigtails are very kawaii... :)

A couple of them - Nakamura Chise, Nakazawa Natsuki, Tatsumi Natsuko - are actually gravure models.

Yah, they are kawaii :bonk:

I had the feeling some of them were gravure models, or at least would become gravure models. Probably them in my collection :sweat:

Were they gravure models before or after Swing Girls?

Did research on the net, i think it's like this. But do correct me if I'm wrong. THTL should know.
Nakamura Chise - After
Nakazawa Natsuki - Before
Tatsumi Natsuko - After

Hmm.

Yeah, thtl would know... If he ever drops by this thread. :sweat:

Actually both Nakazawa and Nakamura started gravure work before their appearances on Swing Girls, Nakazawa being the senpai. Tatsumi started afterwards - she was only 16 when she was featured in the movie.

P.S. How can I not keep an eye out for posts on this thread. :mrgreen:

Cool THTL,

Thanks for the insight!

Finished watching it a few days back and I loved it the music was brilliant too. :D Juri-chan was great in this movie :D
