Sumika Sumire live-action AR content not sure about process

Shmendrick · 11-21-2015

I've posted bout the comic version of this Japanese story several months ago.

The plot is about a 65-year old woman who after leaving her mother's funeral despairs about the fact she lost out on having a normal life. (Her domineering father made her work in the family business and really had no social life) She accidentally cuts herself on an antique shoji screen and frees an imprisoned cat spirit who grants her new life as a high school student.

I'm not sure how this will end since I haven't seen recent chapters of the raw versions of the original comic, but Sumika Sumire is being made into a live-action drama on TV Asahi in Japan. There is also a 4 volume set of Japanese comics out.

I hope the process is somehow shown...although low budget live actions don't bother with it so...

There is a short YT commercial added to the front page of the website with a quick process (more of a morph). That likely increases the chances of there being one in the series.

There is also a slight change to the adaptation, as Sumika will be 20 instead of 17. So they're taking her to college instead of high school.

The premiere date is January 31, 2016.

It makes some sense- the manga time skipped a few years so she could be in college instead of high school works. Actually, in the comic she's already working after college so they could tell the story with flashbacks to high school or similar. Thanks for the info.
