This was my first film of the year 2024. The story of Mi-bo, who constantly thinks about fish day and night, is heartwarming as she continues to express his love for what she enjoys, supported by those around her. The charming way Mi-bo captivates those around him makes it a delightful and wonderful piece.
Introduction
Work from director Shuichi Okita, known for warmly portraying beloved protagonists in works like "Antarctic Chef" and "Yokomichi Yonosuke." This film is based on Sakana-kun's first autobiographical essay, featuring the energetic actress Non in the lead role. Non portrays the protagonist Mi-bo, who, with a mysterious charm that brings happiness to those around her, passionately pursues her interests regardless of gender boundaries. The cast includes Haruka Igawa as Mi-bo's supportive mother, Yuya Yagira as childhood friend Hiyo, and talented actors such as Yuuto Isomura and Amane Okayama in delinquent roles. Notably, the original author, Sakana-kun, makes his debut appearance in the film, adding an exciting element to the production!
