Also getting a live-action flick is Solanin, a slice-of-life drama about a girl named Meiko who's just graduated college, only to find that she hates her job, and her boyfriend is crashing on her couch because his illustrator job doesn't pay enough for him to have her own place. Meiko has to deal with a growing suspicion that she just can't handle living in the real world.
Both manga are being released in English by VIZ; Solanin's single volume came out back in October, and Ooku's first book is due out in August. I, for one, am interested in both films (and now need to go out and read Solanin). How about you?
