So, 'Sayaka VS Chiyo-kun: Abnormal Lesbian' is a curious entry from 1989 that dives into the lives of its two leads—Sayaka, the self-proclaimed 'Three Years of Climax,' and Chiyo, a free-spirited bisexual. It's a film that certainly leans into the drama, exploring the complexities of love and power dynamics in a provocative way. The pacing feels a bit erratic at times, mirroring the chaotic relationships that unfold. What stands out is the raw atmosphere; it captures a certain edgy realism that you don't find in many contemporaneous works. And the practical effects, while not overly flashy, serve the narrative in a way that feels authentic to the gritty vibe. The performances are bold, though they tread the line of theatricality, adding layers to the characters’ motivations and desires.
