Up-and-coming manzai stand-up comedy duo Emi-Abi has lost consummate funny man Unno (a surprisingly touching Tomoya Maeno) to an accident, leaving conceited straight man Jitsudo (Ryu Morioka) to contend with his diminished career prospects as a bland, pretty face entertainer. Guided by his manager Natsumi (Haru Kuroki), who demonstrates stronger comedy chops than her own star, Jitsudo comes to learn the circumstances of his friend's passing, as well as the life-and-death stakes of a career in comedy. Demonstrating a careful balance of tone across tragedy and deadpan and gross-out humor, writer/director Kensaku Watanabe expands "Emi-Abi"'s hilarious premise into a strikingly assured meditation on artistic rivalry and self-actualization.

Gata de Rua recebe suas ordens de Sayoko Uekyo, uma mulher enigmática de vestido branco.

A vida ficcionalizada do pintor e poeta Yumeji Takehisa (1884-1934). Yumeji está em Kanazawa, esperando a chegada de sua amante Hikono, quando se depara com a bela viúva Tomoyo, que perambula pelas cercanias de um lago procurando o corpo de seu marido Wakiya, supostamente assassinado por um bandido. O pintor fica impressionado com Tomoyo e ajuda a viúva em sua busca. Em seguida, eles se tornam amantes. A trama fica mais complexa quando aparecem Matsu, o suposto bandido assassino, e a modelo Oyo, também amante de Yumeji. Até que o próprio Wakiya reaparece, sem que saibamos tratar-se de um fantasma ou de uma presença real. Último volume da “trilogia Taisho,” o filme intensifica os procedimentos oníricos e alucinatórios dos filmes anteriores, chamando mais a atenção para os elementos simbólicos e as atmosferas do que para a trama.
