SAILOR SUIT AND MACHINE GUN (1981) - REMASTERED

Sera-fuku to kikanju - A satirical take on yakuza films, the storyline of the film involves a teenage schoolgirl named Izumi Hoshi who's named the boss of a yakuza clan after the unexpected death of her father.

Hiroko Yakushimaru, the most iconic and charismatic “idol” of the period, plays Izumi, a 16 year old schoolgirl who inherits a declining yakuza organization, which seeks to repair its fortunes under her leadership. Now that she’s the boss of a yakuza clan, quiet Izumi becomes ensnared by violence and drugs.

The mixture of deadpan comedy and outlandish action was a smash hit in Japan and a generation of young Japanese women grew up reciting lines of dialogue from this movie. The film is perhaps best known in Japan for a scene in which the main character Izumi guns down a room full of Yakuza and cries out "Kaikan!", which loosely translates as an announcement of ecstasy.
