Namba Girls' School is one of the top private girls' school in Kansai. An adolescent comedy is stirred up by the members of the school Comedy Club, Sayaka, Miyuki, Nana, Mayu, Riho and Shu! The manzai (Traditional Japanese stand-up comedy) double-act Nana and Miyuki who won the Jury's Special Award in the previous Manzai Competition, lose in the preliminary round. The other members completely lose heart, threatening the club's disbandment, at that moment a mysterious beauty girl Fuko joins the Club. No one knows that she is an earthbound spirit (A type of Japanese Ghost which can not leave a certain area). To make Fuko's only one wish come true, the broken up members of the club unite as one again! Will the Comedy Club make Fuko's wish come true!?

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.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
