It’s the Year of the Ox, and we’re celebrating with contest after contest! This time, Ningin is combining forces with Subway Cinema to give out TEN free tickets to the world premiere of YATTERMAN (ヤッターマン). On Friday, February 6, at 8pm, director Takashi Miike (Crows Zero, Ichi the Killer, The Great Yokai War, Sukiyaki Western Django) and Sho Sakurai, actor and singer from Japanese boy band Arashi, will personally present YATTERMAN at New York City’s prestigious Director’s Guild Theater.

That’s right. World Premiere. This movie doesn’t even open in Japan until March.


Based on the classic Yatterman anime from the 1970’s, this live-action remake is the biggest film Takashi Miike has ever made. The excellent cast stars Sho Sakurai as Gan-chan3, Saki Fukuda as Ai-chan, Kyoko Fukada as Dorombo Gang leader Doronjo, Kendo Kobayashi as Tonzura, Katsuhisa Namase as Boyakki, and Anri Okamoto as the film’s new character Shoko.

This screening is not open to the public. You can get passes at the Nikkatsu Booth (#1315) at New York Comic Con, but you’ve got to wait in line outside the theater. If there are any seats left after the VIPs arrive, then you can go in. That’s the usual routine for a free movie, right? Well, guess what? Ningin winners are guaranteed entry and a seat. To enter PM DavidHou with “YATTERMAN ROCKS!” in the subject line. Write your name and phone number in the message body and send it by 9pm, Wednesday, February 4. We’ll pick five winners at random. Each winner will receive two tickets each.

For the Japanese proficient, check out the official YATTERMAN site. And check out our contest partners Subway Cinema too! The Subway guys organize the New York Asian Film Festival and kick major a$$ every year! They organized this screening and wanted to spread the love to our Ningin readers. Once again, I must repeat: Subway Cinema kicks major a$$!

And now I know you want to watch The TRAILERRRRRR!!! Good Luck!

Why is the world premiere happening in NYC and not Japan?

Probably because it’s premiering at NY Comic Con, so it’s taking advantage of the geekdom publicity. ^.^

Yaay.... very excited about seeing this on Friday! smile


sweet i gotta see this.


This...coming from the director of Ichi the Killer?


I love how you guys have so many contests! If possible, try to have more DVDs ^^


Thank you so much for this great contest, Ningin (Mr. Hou) and Subway Cinema!! 
The trailer looks great!!  (^_<)/


A lot of contests do one per household cuz it’s easy for one person to say they have a big family and enter 12 times.

So yea, thanks for this contest I wish I was in NYC :(


lol Per household?

1. Entering Contests and Choosing and Contacting Winners

Winners of random email contests will be chosen at random from emails received.

Entrants must send entries using the correct contest entry email address, subject line, and any other specific entry information requested in the contest announcement. Mixr Media is not responsible for and will not consider incomplete or incorrect entries, or emails sent but not received by Mixr Media for any reason, as potential contest winners.

Winners of all contests will be contacted at the “sender” email address used to enter the contest, and the person receiving and replying to the winner announcement email will be considered the winner. Mixr Media will mail the contest prize to the address supplied by the recipient of the winner announcement email.

Only one entry per email address used to send the email will be considered for contest entry, unless multiple entries are specifically allowed in the contest posting. Unless otherwise specified in an individual contest post, no person may enter any contest more than once using multiple email addresses.

Claiming of prizes requires an email response to Mixr Media from the winning sender email address within 30 days of being notified of winning at the email address used to enter. Failure to respond shall mean that the winner forfeits the prize. Mixr Media is not required to award elsewhere any prizes forfeited by the chosen winner(s).
