Anime Jungle No. 2 in Little Tokyo to show off photos from our last Lolita Tour, and watch "Sakuran," the movie about Edo-period prostitutes starring loli icon and "Kamikaze Girls" star Anna Tsuchiya.
The movie is based on the manga by Moyocco Anno. I love Tsuchiya, and her music for the "Nana" anime is fabulous. Plus, Shiina Ringo serves as music director for the film. And it's the first foray into film for still photographer Mika Ninagawa.
Anime Jungle No. 2 is located at 325 East 1st St. in downtown LA.
