I have seen the trailers for this Anime for a long time. They always said that Alfred Hitchcock would be pleased with this movie. I agree with them! I rented this movie with my PS3 and wasn’t disappointed! It really did feel like you were watching what Hitchcock would have done if he was Japanese! No time in the movie did I know who the Killer really was! That helps keep you guessing every minute!

The Movie is about Mima Kirigoe. She is a Pop Singer for the Band, "CHAM!" She feels that it is time to move on and become a movie star. This idea was her manager’s, but she sensed to think it was a good idea. Some of her fans don’t see it that way. She gets a small role at first for a psychological thriller movie, but then becomes the Killer in the movie. The only thing is… Now fans are calling her a Traitor!

Things start out bad at the movie set. Mima got a Letter bomb! Lucky for her, her manager opened it and not her. After they wanted more of Mima in the movie, sadly the writer wanted a Rape scene in the movie. This is where Mima’s character goes crazy and when she starts going too. Later when she is introduced to the Internet… she’s from the countryside… She goes to “Mima’s Room” a fan website and starts reading what Mima wrote… But she didn’t write it, so who did?

From there the movie takes us there a wild ride! Will be watching something, then Mima will wakeup from a dream. It feels just like “Psycho” from Hitchcock. You just never know what’s really going on! That’s about all I’m going to say about the Story. I don’t want to tell you how it ends. =P

In all, this is a very good movie to watch for all Anime fans!!! Of course, it’s not for kids because of Nudity and a Rape scene. If you LOVE Alfred Hitchcock, you have to watch this!!!!
