Description:
The title of the broadcast series Nerima Daikon Brothers (2006) comes from the name of a Tokyo suburb once known for its daikon radishes. Hideki dreams of turning his radish patch into a rock & roll stadium where he can perform--and of making love to his money-hungry cousin Mako. His phlegmatic brother Ichiro works in a host bar entertaining rich old ladies and at least one dirty old man. Nerima Daikon Brothers combines the shrill hysteria of Excel Saga with the musical format of The Archies. Accompanied by Pandaikon, a panda they catch raiding their field, the trio keeps breaking into song. But the vocal cast lacks the cho
The title of the broadcast series Nerima Daikon Brothers (2006) comes from the name of a Tokyo suburb once known for its daikon radishes. Hideki dreams of turning his radish patch into a rock & roll stadium where he can perform--and of making love to his money-hungry cousin Mako. His phlegmatic brother Ichiro works in a host bar entertaining rich old ladies and at least one dirty old man. Nerima Daikon Brothers combines the shrill hysteria of Excel Saga with the musical format of The Archies. Accompanied by Pandaikon, a panda they catch raiding their field, the trio keeps breaking into song. But the vocal cast lacks the chops needed to put over the banal musical numbers. With its leering double entendres about radishes, hot dogs, and cucumbers, Nerima Daikon Brotherswill appeal to hormonal teenagers who enjoy telling dirty jokes in the locker room.(Rated TV MA SL, suitable for ages 17 and older: sexual humor, brief nudity, cartoon violence, profanity, alcohol use, ethnic and sexual stereotypes) --Charles Solomon
What's a band to do with no fame, and especially no sold-out arena to perform in? How can they grab the cash they need to build the Concert Dome of their DREAMS?! Well, they can't. But the NERIMA DAIKON BROTHERS sure as hell are going to try! WATCH as Hideki, Ichiro, and Mako (yeah, one of them's a chick!) farm daikon by day, and battle slimy record producers, pachinko-mad hags, monstrous nurses, flatulent hospital administrators, and hot police babes, by night. LISTEN as the band AND the evil villains sing hilarious songs, all along the bumpy, daikon-studded road! TUNE IN AND SEE!!! (What's daikon? Is it a vegetable? Is it a fruit? A weapon? A girl's best friend? All of the above?! )
