Birds Without Names jmovie review

At the start of Birds Without Names, we meet Towako (Aoi Yu) a woman who seems to be a serial complainer and has a bad attitude. She lives with Sano (Abe Sadao) who she leeches off and treats like dirt.


Towako seems like a character without any redeeming features. She seems eager to jump onto any good looking guy that crosses her path while completely treating Sano like baggage that she has to put up with.

The dysfunctional relationship between Towako and Sano is at the root of this movie and what a marvelously dark and sad relationship it is. As the movie progresses, we find out what made Towako turn out the way she is and the nexus of her and Sano's relationship.

Birds Without Names is the type of of depressing jmovie that I love. The acting is real and raw and there is no compromises. I was glued to the screen from the beginning to the end and what an ending. Something I will never forget. True love exists in many forms.

Must watch and Japanese cinema at its finest. Abe Sadao's best movie since Yume Uru Futari. Thanks to skewed fansubs for the sub and I got the raws from avistaz.

  1. I've just want to recommend you to watch this, because kind of weird you didn't watch this movie yet, and that twist man.

    I want to recommend yet another great movie from the same novel writer Mahokaru Numata, Yurigokoro, plus it have Yuriko Yoshitaka.
