Takahashi commented: "Humans tell lies, but dogs don't. These endlessly devoted partners will make you cry manly tears!"

The 2020 film adaptation of the classic 1903 novel by Chris Sanders. The story follows the companionship between a dog named Buck and a human man named Thornton, who is played by Harrison Ford. The film first opened in the United States on February 21, and was released digitally in Japan on June 17. The Blu-ray and DVD set will release on July 3.

Five copies of Takahashi's artwork will be distributed as part of the film's Twitter campaign in Japan until July 17. Residents of Japan who submit a review or tweet with the hashtags #思わず泣けた名シーン (A scene that made me cry) and #野性に還る瞬間 (The moment of returning to the wild) will enter a draw to win a Blu-ray and DVD set with the artwork bundled with it.

The original manga inspired a television anime adaptation in 1986, and the Ginga Legend Weed sequel inspired a television anime in 2005. Ginga Legend Weed manga in English.
