NOTHING NEW is backing We Are Aliens, the anime film written, directed, storyboarded, and edited by Kohei Kadowaki. The film opens in Japan on September 25, with marketing now centered on the heroine Konatsu.
NOTHING NEW's involvement with We Are Aliens was announced alongside TOHO NEXT, which is handling the Japanese release. The film is written, directed, storyboarded, and edited by Kohei Kadowaki, and follows two estranged childhood friends. It opens in Japan on September 25.
Before that date, the film screened at Cannes and Annecy. The cast, as announced, has Ryota Bando and Amane Okayama as the adult leads Tsubasa and Gyotaro. Yuto Maki and Tasuku Nakagome voice the same characters as children. Ten Yamasaki, a member of Sakurazaka46, plays the heroine Konatsu.
Marketing has moved in stages. A trailer in late August framed the reunion around the Heisei era, the period when the two friends meet as children. On September 15, with the opening two weeks away, NOTHING NEW released a new trailer and visual built around Konatsu. The two leads remain in place in both trailers. The film's festival run put it in front of programmers before general audiences.
