The popular girl manga "Senpai to Kiyomi" by Atsuko Namba will be adapted into a live-action movie. The live-action version will be directed by Chihiro Ikeda and written by Kiyomi Wada, and is scheduled to be released this fall.

"Senpai to Kiyomi" is a campus youth romance manga serialized in "Bessatsu FRIEND" (Kodansha) from 2004 to 2005. The story tells that a high school girl, Rika Tsuzuki, falls in love with her senior, Keigo Minohara, but her senior's heart has long been with someone else...

In the live-action movie version, Jun Shison, who starred in "Resha Sentai Tokkyuger", plays the male protagonist Keigo Minohara. After more than half a year of negotiations, the film producer finally got him to agree to star in this film.

Okita Aoi, who also likes Keigo Minohara, is played by Riri An, who played Natsume Mio in "Resha Sentai Tokkyuger".
