Kei is from Hiroshima, a city famously victimized by an American atomic bomb in 1945. In the shadow of its haunting image of the skeletal remains of the Atomic Bomb Dome , the city is also known, largely among Japanese, as a heavily battled territory for the Yakuza s. Kinji Fukusaku s iconic film Battles Without Honor and Humanity, a favorite of Quentin Tarantino, is set in Hiroshima. With such unique backgrounds, people from Hiroshima are said to have a passionate disposition. Twenty-two year old Kei is a fine sample of such a passionate Hiroshiman.
