Live-Action Haganai Film's Teaser Trailer, Visual Unveiled
posted on by Egan Loo
The official website for the live-action film adaptation of Yomi Hirasaka's Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai (Haganai) light novel series has unveiled the teaser trailer and a teaser visual on Friday.
Hirasaka and Buriki's original Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai light novels revolve around Kodaka (played by Kōji Seto) — a half-Japanese/half-British transfer student whose delinquent-like blonde hair and fierce eyes scare people — and a seemingly perpetually sullen girl named Yozora (Kie Kitano). The two decide to form Rinjinbu, a club for misfits with hardly any friends. Another member is Sena (Mio Otani), a beautiful girl who treats her male admirers like slaves but has never had any female friends.
Takurō Oikawa wrote the screenplay and directed the film, which is slated for early 2014. Hirasaka stated previously that the film will be an original story, so as not to recreate the original school romantic comedy light novels.
The light novel series' nine volumes have 6.1 million copies in print. It already inspired two television anime series with video anime spinoffs as well as a manga.
