Akemi (Mizuna Rei), the only daughter of the Kanto Kozakura family, hated the yakuza and lived in a dormitory at a girls' school in Tokyo, but returned home after hearing the news that her father had suddenly died. When she sees the Kozakura family for the first time in a long time, she finds it deserted, with only two subordinates, Pinkichi and Sutematsu. They call Akemi "big sister" and worship her. Meanwhile, the Gouda family, which has been expanding its influence in place of the Kozakura family, has been repeatedly harassing the Kozakura family in order to take over their territory. Chie (Wakatsuki Maria), a younger sister who adores Akemi, also becomes a victim of the Gouda family. Burning with rage, Akemi takes on the name of the second generation. Dressed in a sailor uniform and holding a Japanese sword, she attacks the Gouda family...!

Although TheMovieDB might provide a key to a YouTube video, there is no guarantee that the video might be present at YouTube.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
