The Black Leather Handbook (also translated as Black Leather Notepad) is based on the suspense novel by Kiyohari Matsumoto.
tells the story of Motoko Haraguchi, a poor girl known as the "worst drinking girl", in order to try to get rid of fate, use various big people to achieve her own class promotion, and threaten and defraud by mastering the handle of these people.
The original work has been filmed into a film and television drama 6 times, and everyone is more familiar with the 2004 version of Ryoko Yonekura, in which Ginza's youngest mother, San, has also become a classic character in the hearts of many Japanese drama fans.
In 2017, TV Asahi remade it again, starring Saki Takei, who was less than 24 years old at the time.
Originally, I didn't have a lot of feelings for Saki Takei, but through this drama, Hachiko has completely changed his opinion of her.
The young Saki Takei also perfectly plays the role of this evil woman who plays with men in the palm of her hand and accumulates money madly, and instantly captures the audience with an awe-inspiring posture commensurate with Ginza's mother-san, and her enchanting movements and smile instantly capture the audience.
There are also some lines in the play that are often hotly turned on the domestic Internet, such as this sentence "I want to be the master of money", which is actually from this drama.
In the Japanese drama version, Atom was eventually arrested for fraud and other crimes, and three years later there was also an SP, adapted from Matsumoto Kiyohari's "Abduction", which tells the story of Atom's release from prison after three years of imprisonment.
Atom returned to his old business in the ancient capital of Kanazawa, once again worked as a female publicist escort girl, and came to work in the club "Altros" opened by the Kanazawa land snake god Shugo (played by Atsushiro Watanabe).
As soon as she arrived in the store, Atom was bullied by other female publicists, but she was also a veteran and soon became the top card in the store and became the new mother-san.
Atom's opponent is not other female PR, she wants to do a bigger career, and the real opponent is the god generation who has collected a lot of ill-gotten wealth and is rich.
The play also continues to show the beauty of Japanese kimonos, which is the softness and elegance of oriental beauty, and the beauty of Saki Takei is still the same.
