Following PHOENIX WRIGHT: ACE ATTORNEY, prolific director Takashi Miike has already got another film lined up for release in Japanese cinemas! It is a live action adaptation of the manga AI TO MAKOTO, also known as THE LEGEND OF LOVE AND SINCERITY.
It is a high school romance about two people from two different worlds. The boy Makoto is played by Satoshi Tsumabuki (VILLIAN, VILLON'S WIFE, PANDEMIC, SCHOOL DAYS WITH A PIG), while the girl Ai is played by Emi Takei who has appeared in some television series and will be seen in a number of Japanese films due for release this year.
The trailer looks colorful, beautiful, and different... but in a good way (this is a Miike film after all!).
AI TO MAKOTO will open in Japanese cinemas on June 16.
