posted on by Egan Loo
Comedy based on manga set in hot spring from Me and the Devil Blues' Hiramoto
A live-action film adaptation of Yarisugi Companion to Atashi Monogatari (The Story of the Over-the-Top Companion and Me) gag comedy manga has been green-lit for a September release. The "ultimate erotic comedy" revolves around Yarisu, an eager 18-year-old novice "companion" (hostess) who works at a hot spring town. Trouble ensues on her first gig, and when she falls into the hot spring, her body suddenly "transforms."
Maaya Morinaga will play Yarisu. The rest of the cast includes Momoko Tani (Keiko). The crew will start shooting the film in June entirely on location.
BeeTV in December.
