Next year's third issue of Hakusensha's Hana to Yume magazine announced on Thursday that the live-action film of Ryoko Fukuyama's shōjo manga Anonymous Noise will premiere on November 25 in Japan. The film stars Jun Shison (live-action anohana special's Yukiatsu) and Yūta Koseki (live-action Donten ni Warau/Laughing Under the Clouds) as Yuzu and Momo, respectively, and Ayami Nakajō (live-action Lychee Light Club, Setoutsumi) as the heroine Nino.
The manga is also getting a television anime adaptation that will premiere in April 2017.
Viz Media licensed the manga for North America, and it describes the story:
A girl who loves to sing, Nino Arisugawa experiences her first heart wrenching goodbye when her beloved childhood friend, Momo, moves away. And after Nino befriends Yuzu, a music composer, she experiences another sad parting! With music as their common ground and only outlet, how will unrequited love play out? Since both boys promised Nino that they will find her one day through her singing, she holds on to that hope and continues to reach out with her voice. Now in high school, Nino serendipitously reunites with Yuzu, but she yearns to see Momo again…
Fukuyama launched the series in Hana to Yume magazine in April 2013. Hakusensha published the 11th compiled book volume on December 20. Viz Media will release the first volume in English in March 2017.
