A teaser has been released of the highly anticipated live action movie of the manga, Kimi Ni Todoke. The movie stars Mikako Tabe as Sawako and Haruma Miura as Kazehaya. According to NipponCinema, “Because of her long dark hair and generally gloomy appearance, she’s commonly referred to as “Sadako” by other students—a reference to the character from Hideo Nakata’s 1998 horror film “Ring.” However, her life begins to change one day when a popular classmate named Shota Kazehaya begins talking to her. His gesture of friendship gives her the confidence to be more outgoing and try things she never would have tried before. Eventually, her gratitude toward him leads to a budding romance.” The film is set to release in Japan September 25, 2010.
I’ve religiously been reading the manga, and I am so excited for this. Are any of you readers?
