Trailer - The Girl Who Leapt Through Time [Live-Action] (Toki o Kakeru Shojo)

Stylejam recently sent out a new 2-minute trailer for Masaaki Taniguchi‘s upcoming live-action adaptation of The Girl Who Leapt Through Time to the major Japanese movie sites and media outlets ahead of even their own official website.

The film stars Riisa Naka  (the voice of Makoto in the 2006 animated film) as Akari, the 18-year-old daughter of the protagonist of the original novel, Kazuko Yoshiyama (played by Narumi Yasuda). When Kazuko is injured in a car accident and falls into a coma, Akari leaps back in time to the 70s to seek out her mother’s first love, Kazuo Fukamachi. Instead, she meets a college student named Ryota (Akiyoshi Nakao) who helps her with her search.

“The Girl Who Leapt Through Time” will be released first at Cinequanon’s Human Trust Cinema Shibuya and Yurakucho 1-chome in March, 2010.
