posted on by Sarah Nelkin
The website for the live-action film adaptation of Emi Ishikawa's Zekkyō Gakkyū manga began streaming a trailer for the movie this week. The trailer features the “Don't Cry” song by Shiori Niiyama, which will serve as the movie's theme song. Actresses Haruna Kawaguchi, Mayu Matsuoka, Haru, and Mizuki Yamamoto will star in the film.
Ishikawa's original manga follows a ghost girl named Yomi as she tells the reader various scary stories. Ishikawa began serializing the series in Shueisha's Ribon magazine in 2008, and the 13 collected volume have sold over 1.2 million copies. The series already received a "vomic" (voice + comic) video in 2010 starring Tomomi Kasai, Moeno Nitō, Haruka Ishida, and Reina Fujie of the female idol group AKB48, as well as several anime promotional videos.
The film will open in Japanese theaters on June 14.
