Description:

Although she comes from a middle-class family, Tsukushi Makino is a sophomore at Eitoku Academy, an elite school for children of the rich and materialistic. The student body is dominated by the F4 or "Flower Four," the richest boys in the school. Tsukushi is smitten with one of the quartet: Rui, a languid violinist who's alternately kind and aloof. But she attracts the attention of Tsukasa, the leader of the clique. One minute, Tsukasa and his friends are cruelly harassing Tsukushi; the next, they're rescuing her because she's willing to stand up to them. The story suffers from serious gaps (how Tsukushi got into Eitoku is never explained) and a major disconnect from reality. In "No Brand Girl," Tsukasa kidnaps Tsukushi, takes her to his house--and has her given a ¥420,000 ($3,600) make-over. Maybe it's believable in Japan. (Rated 13 and older: brief nudity, minor profanity, violence) --Charles Solomon
