This is one of the greatest silly movie I've ever seen. It's dumb and not dumb at the same time. Actually it's done quite well. The story is impossible to explain. It's about a girl Momoko Ryugasaki who's into Lolita fashion. She has unending collection of Baby (that's a brand name) fashion, and lives a decadent life style as a teenager. The story makes no sense at all to a westerner but is a spot on portrayal of Japanese subculture.
You need to see this movie to understand the movie and the culture that spawned it into existence.
One of the best movie to come from Japan, it's a must see if you're an Asian culture affectionado.
BTW aho means "dumb" in Japanese.
