Amane (Kazuya Takahashi) knows all there is to know about the crying game —and then some. He's a happy, average corporate-type hetero with a pretty, innocent fiancée (Natsue Yoshimura) named Juri, but when he gets into a car accident with glamorous transsexual chanteuse Hanabusa (Kumiko Takeda), his life takes a turn for the melodramatic. (Perhaps something got lost in the translation here; the subtitles refer to Hanabusa and her ilk as "hermaphrodites"). Throughout the course of vid, Hanabusa manages to seduce Amane and his girlfriend, who goes insane when Amane dumps her.
Then Hanabusa dumps Amane, and don't think Juri's shedding a tear over it. Bent on reuniting with Amane, she has sex with Hanabusa and her kinky long-haired male friend —and cries rape. Amane couldn't give a fuck. So she seduces Amane's best friend. Then she insists she's pregnant. Finally, she tries to kill herself, but all her efforts serve only to reunite Amane and Hanabusa; and True Love prevails. Heartwarming.
