Shogakukan-Shueisha Productions announced a collaboration music video between Bleach and ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION's song After Dark. The MV is the 50th entry in the Jump MV series, which pairs Weekly Shonen Jump properties with Sony Music artists. It premieres on the YouTube Jump Channel on June 13 at 19:00 JST. After Dark was the opening theme for the Bleach Arrancar arc and was released as the band's 10th single in 2007.
New footage for the film "Never After Dark," produced by Kento Kaku and starring Moeka Hoshi, has been released on YouTube. The video presents a tour of the mansion setting as if it were an attraction, showing the old clock, a ringing phone, a self-opening door, and a "room of sealed secrets." The film opens nationwide on June 5.
The horror film "Never After Dark," produced by and starring Kento Kaku, will open in Japanese theaters on June 5. Directed by Dave Boyle, who previously worked with Kaku on the 2024 Netflix series "House of Ninjas," the film held its Japan premiere screening on April 28 at TOHO Cinemas Shinjuku in Tokyo. The story follows Airi, a medium from a family of psychics, and her sister Miku, who became a spirit after an incident. Together they investigate paranormal cases, including a request to exorcise a ghost haunting a mansion. Moka Hoshi plays Airi, Kureha Inagaki plays Miku, and Tae Kimura plays Teiko, with Kaku appearing as her skeptical son Gunji. Preview attendees described the film as a "revolution in Japanese horror cinema," praising its shift in fear type between the first and second halves. Comments highlighted the pacing, the single-setting mansion location, and the blend of suspense and mystery. The production is the first theatrical feature from SIGNAL181, the film production company founded by Kaku and Boyle. Kaku also promoted the film by posting a phone number on social media that, when called, plays a recorded message in his voice as a promotional gimmick.
