Detroit Metal City Page #3

Synopsis: Soichi Negishi moved to Tokyo to chase his dream of becoming a musician playing stylish, Swedish-style pop. Instead, he finds himself leading the death metal band Detroit Metal City, or DMC, as the costumed and grotesquely made-up "demon emperor" Johannes Krauser II. Although he hates the role and the things he has to do as a member of the band, he has a definite talent for it. Adapted from the hit Japanese comic book by Kiminori Wakasugi, the movie follows Negishi's antics as he tries to reconcile the two very different sides of his life and find out what it really means to achieve his dream.

you'd love.

Shall we go?

In Daikanyama?

I'll go. Definitely.

I'd love to.

I didn't blow it.

Hooray!

Death Records

I saw it, Negishi.

First time a newspaper article

got me wet down there.

Violence to women

during autograph session.

Stuff of legend is just

what the band needs.

Well done for that.

I'm soooo grateful.

Another superb Negishi performance.

I was just trying to distract her...

Now the band's one step closer to Jack.

Who's Jack?

You play death metal

but you don't know Jack II Dark?

It's hot!

Jack II Dark,

the emperor of black metal,

a legend in American magazine.

He survives in the darkest time,

and the rest of time again,

through drugs, sexual brutality

and assault brutality.

His performances were

violent and death-related.

There are following fans like

so many moths to the flame.

Fuckingham Palace.

The King's anphant.

A smash of rest of youths,

who were tired of existing sound,

He changed

the world's metal music, forever.

When I was young,

his records turned me on to metal.

DMC's roots go back to him.

Who'd want their root

in a scary guy like that?

I want to eat bloomers.

Anyhow, it was great publicity.

Keep up the good work, making legends

churning out songs.

Certainly. Right, buddy?

Not me.

I want trendy music

that makes people dream...

Jesus Christ.

Don't be so full of yourself,

you bastard!

Krauser, get more crazy.

Give your body and soul

over to violence.

Don't hurt me.

Before long,

you'll out-do Jack

as a Monster of Metal.

Wait, Negishi...

Let him go.

This is the only life he has.

He just isn't aware of his genius yet.

Leave him to me.

It's so wonderful.

Before my very eyes,

the first time since joining DMC,

that trendy lifestyle

I'd almost given up on.

What's up?

Wait a minute...

I keep coming up with great phrases...

So you kept up the music after all.

Love does provide the energy

to create music, after all.

Sell off all the female swine

Let's just keep it secret, huh?

Yuri-chan, right?

I'm glad you came by again.

He's one of the greats

of the Tokyo trendy scene...

designer, Hidetaka Asato.

Honored to meet you...

This is a shirt you designed

exclusively for a magazine.

Is that right? It really suits you.

Praise... from the top.

This store you designed, it's lovely.

Really? I'm doing a jazz-bar next.

And a limited edition pastry

for convenience stores.

Try my drinkable rice-bowl.

Wow, you even create that?

Negishi-kun wants to be a musician.

I'm just starting out...

That's not true. He's really good.

Let's have a taste.

Sing in my performance space.

Great.

I haven't heard you for ages.

If Asato-san likes my music here...
