About Hoshikawa Minami: Itaikena kyonyû
Ryota, who works as a staff member at a role-play-themed adult club, visits a hotel with his girlfriend, Akari, on her birthday—only to have her break up with him right after they have sex. After drinking heavily in despair, Ryota finds a sex doll at a trash collection point and brings it home; he tearfully embraces the doll while pouring out his feelings for Akari. The next morning, a naked young woman is asleep beside Ryota. She reveals herself to be Mira, a witch who had been transformed into the sex doll by a spell. Grateful to Ryota for breaking the curse, she offers to grant him three wishes...
Directed by Mototsugu Watanabe, Hoshikawa Minami: Itaikena kyonyû leans on a strong ensemble — Minami Hoshikawa, Keiko Seto, Azusa Sakai — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2004.
