Goodbye kabukicho's behind-the-scenes tidbits

Goodbye kabukicho is the first time that Atsuko Maeda has challenged to lead a romantic movie, and it is also the first time that she has partnered with shta Sometani. This film is the third collaboration between director Ryuichi Hiroki and screenwriter Haruhiko Arakawa after Oscillator (2003) and Soft Life (2006). Although Atsuko Maeda is from AKB48, he has never touched a guitar. At the beginning of the performance, director Hiroki gave a dead order that a piece of music must be played completely, so Atsuko Maeda had a month of special training. In order to play the role of a cleaner in a lover's hotel, Kaho Mei specially asked the full-time staff of a hotel in Tokyo for relevant technology. The film was rated as R 15, and the heroine was over-represented in the script creation stage. With Atsuko Maeda being identified as the leading role, the relevant settings were completely changed, and Atsuko Maeda Office also protested during the filming process, which made Hiroki complain for a time. In shta some tani, a running scene was filmed for two hours, which made the director furious on the set.
