A couple tries to peddle their awful health drink, and problems arise between them. This is closer to the zany Yamashita of Matsugane Potshot Affair than the sweet Yamashita of Linda Linda Linda. Or maybe somewhere in the middle. The film is never laugh-out-loud funny, but there are amusing moments. It's interesting to see how these kids interact with each other, even though Daisuke is quite a douchebag. I'd have a hard time thinking of a situation to recommend this movie, but it's not too bad.
