Comment
Heroine: Mochi Morita
From the Showa era to this day in Reiwa, the love of countless people continues to melt into the depths of City Hunter.Standing in such a legendary world full of love as Ms. Kaori Makimura, I savor every day the tension that makes her heart jump and the joy that makes her exhilarated.Kaori is hard-working, powerful, affectionate and charming.The more she looks into her heart, the more she finds herself captivated by her charm.I would like to push forward with all my strength with her love so that I can touch even a little bit of her in your memories.
Starring: Ryohei Suzuki
A few months spent together as Kaori and Ryo.Morita-san is soft, honest to the point of being too honest, and always works hard.The figure of Morita-san, who practiced wielding a prop with a desperate face behind the set, was exactly that single-minded and innocent girl that I loved since I was a child, Kaori Makimura.I am sure that you will be able to meet the charming and lovable Kaori who will not betray the image of Kaori that you have, and above all, what only Morita can do.
Director: Yuuichi Sato
I remember being very happy when I heard that I would be able to perform this time.When I saw her acting in various works, I thought that she must be an actress with a high level of concentration.When I actually met her, she was an actress with a somewhat soft and mysterious atmosphere.But I also felt her invisible "core strength".I thought that it was because she was that kind of girl that she received a lot of attention and received a lot of offers."Kaori" played by Mr. Morita who has a momentary concentration.Please look forward to it.
Executive Producer / Shinichi Takahashi (Netflix Content Manager)
I was looking forward to seeing Mr. Morita, who can play any role as if he was "possessed" and run around the world of City Hunter as "Kaori". (Unfortunately) I had her beautiful long hair cut for this work, which can be said to be her trademark.For the first time in his career as an actor, he played the role of “Kaoru” with short hair. I even remember the illusion that incense is in Shinjuku.Through filming, I am confident that this work will be loved not only by many fans around the world, but also by those who are experiencing "City Hunter" for the first time.
