The film will re-edit the four episodes based on Osamu Dazai's No Longer Human (Ningen Shikkaku) novel, which have character designs inspired by manga artist and novel illustrator Takeshi Obata (Death Note, Hikaru no Go, Bakuman.). This "director's cut" will include new "navigation" footage which is being created specifically for the film with narrator Masato Sakai.
If you purchase the theater tickets in advance, you will be getting a "No Longer Human" postcard, writing notes(notebooks?), and two other related freebies!
I am very happy for this! I so wanna see the edited scenes! And I would like to have those free stuff too~ The notebook stuff make it seem like Death Note. Hehe~
