Kaibutsu-kun gets one step closer to getting a movie. The official website Kaibutsu-kun has announced on Saturday that an all-new television special has been green-lit. The final episode of the television series has already aired, but the 90-minute “Mō Kaette Kita yo!! Kaibutsu-kun Subete Shinsaku SP” program will air on June 26. The story takes place after Kaibutsu-kun, the prince of Kaibutsu Land, is separated from his human friends Hiroshi and Utako and returns to his homeland. Arashi band member Satoshi Ohno stars as the title character.

I haven’t finished the series yet, but what I can tell from the fans’ reactions is that they are happy. I hope it is just as cute and funny as the regular drama is.
