After the stir Oomori’s MVs to “Midnight Seijun Isei Kouyuu” and “Kimi to Eiga” caused over their depiction of a barely platonic relationship between friends, additional shots from both MVs were the compiled into a new episode for a theatrical film release.

The feature, directed by Daigo Matsui, the same director for both MVs, casts Ai Hashimoto and Jun Aonami as double leads, with Oomori put in charge of the film’s music and theme. It was no small task for Oomori, but with her major debut break on Avex earlier this year, it’s no surprise she was up to the challenge.

The re-collaboration between Hashimoto and Aonami has been met with an overwhelming positive response. Hashimoto’s popularity soared after her break out role in Kirishima, Bukatsu Yamerutte Yo. This year she’s been keeping busy starring as lead for a number of releases like Parasyte, Little Forest: Summer and Autumn, and Adult Drop. Although Aonami’s acting career isn’t as extensive as Hashimoto’s yet, the winner of the Miss iD 2014 Grand Prix made her film debut this year in Sekai no Owari no Izuko Neko. Impressing critics and taking home the Miss iD title despite her unusual demeanor for an idol, she should have no problem handling such an unconventional role alongside Hashimoto.

Fans can enjoy catching a glimpse of a few scenes from the movie with this trailer release, along with clips of Oomori performing onstage and the theme song “Noroi wa Mizuiro”. Shot with a very modern approach, with neither the film nor its music fitting into any specific genre, it’s sure to appeal to a wide audience.

Additionally, on November 17th an advanced screening of the movie will be held at the Shimokitazawa Station Front Theater in Tokyo, with onstage appearances by the cast.
