It has been so long since we talked about the movie adaptation of the Kazuo Umezu manga Orochi that we completely missed the first teaser. Never fear. Nippon Cinema has picked up the first full trailer for it and by their own account it is much better than the teaser.

[Twitch] We have our two sisters, Kazusa and Lisa. For Lisa, no matter what she does, her sister Kazusa has done it better. Lisa is always told that she’ll never be comparable to her sister. As any sibling rivalry is wont to do it results in feelings of jealousy and vengeance. As Lisa grows she learns to hate and at times lashes out at the sister she once loved… [Nippon Cinema] A third girl named Orochi observes the situation and acts as a narrator for the story. Orochi is an ageless being who must sleep every 100 years. However, when she saves Lisa from an accident her sleep is trigger prematurely. When she awakens decades later she discovers Kazusa is now ill and being taken care of by Lisa, but things don’t seem quite right between them.

    I’ve only read parts of the manga but so far I like what I see. Seems to be sufficiently faithful, the production design is beautiful and if they keep that horrid pop song for the end credits we may just be good.
