Japanese films aren't all violent: How about Hideaki Anno's Love and Pop - a bizarre tale of a girl who goes on a series of phone organised 'play dates' with older working men, so that she can buy a ring she comes across at a local mall. There isn't really much of a plot, or indeed much meaning, until the end, where she finds herself having learned the great lesson, "don't prostitute yourself, even if you want to buy something really bad", as a result of a pseudo-rape at the hands of a client.
