sunako_yueMasakazu Isshiki (Masato Sakai) is a mystery writer. He lives with his much younger wife Akiko (Mitsuki Takahata) in Kamakura, Japan. They solve mysterious cases taking place around them. (asiawiki-2017)
So nice to see Sakai Masato again. And he made a lovely couple with Takahata Mitsuki, in spite of the 18-year-old gap. I think because he is so gentle-looking and because she is lively and carefree. The pace was good, there is always something happening in this little town in Kamakura, where ghosts, monsters, Gods and shinigamis interact with the living.
I was impressed with the amount of cameo in this movie. Everybody was familiar and had a tiny role. The last part of the movie was something like Orpheus going to the Underworld to rescue Eurydice.
I've only start watching it because of Sakai-san, but at the end, I loved the movie, the fantasy world and all the unexpected moments.
**My rating: 8.5/10**
