Written on September 24, 2025

Tonkatsu DJ Agetarō is a fun and meaningful live-action adaptation of the manga, blending the unlikely worlds of deep-frying pork cutlets and DJ-ing into a heartfelt coming-of-age journey. Through its themes of family expectation, patriarchy, and the balance between responsibility and freedom, the film offers both laughs and thoughtful reflection. Supported by charming performances, clever analogies, and upbeat music, it delivers an entertaining story that encourages pursuing dreams without fear of failure.
