Coo's Hara to Direct Colorful Film with Sunrise Studio (Updated)

posted on by Egan Loo
Based on award-winning novel about person brought back to life in suicidal boy's body

The anime studio Koki Tanaka.

The "heart-warming comedy" follows a person who finds himself trapped outside the normal endless circle of life and death. Thanks to "winning" a lottery in the angel world, the protagonist is brought back to inhabit the body of a 14-year-old boy — who is planning to commit suicide. Thus, the protagonist begins a new life.

The film is one of three films planned for 2009 and beyond that were discussed during Animax channel in Japan this June.
