His favorite phrase is "Gorgeous" and he protects the world from the clutches of the evil organization called "Hundred". What's more, the person following Kaguya is a butler named Butler, who looks exactly like Houtaro's friend Ryo Kajiki!

"Around the time he made such remarkably ambivalent war films as Mud and Soldiers and Five Scouts, Tasaka directed this 'home front' comedy-drama which is too bizarre to be serious propaganda. [The plot revolves around a public contribution campaign to buy airplanes.] The mayor's aviator son promises to fly over the village in salute, and much of the narrative concerns the preparations for this great event. Tasaka throws in a few songs, some village humor and satire, and tremendous camera mobility, finally wringing every possible effect from his climax." John Gillett, British Film Institute
