In Kensaku Watanabe‘s Cheer Cheer Cheer!, Yui Aragaki plays Momoko: a shy, lonely girl who spends her spare time reading romantic fantasy stories. When she develops a huge crush on her school’s star baseball player she comes up with the perfect excuse to watch him play every day: reviving the school’s nearly-defunct traditional cheer squad. However, the only people she can get to join are a bunch of misfits and losers. Although Momoko never lacks spirit, their cheering begins as a disaster. It isn’t until they discover the true meaning of “cheering” and develop a new-found passion for it that they begin to truly inspire the people around them.
Coming to Japanese theaters Saturday, October 11th.
