BABY ASSASSINS: Now Streaming On Hi-YAH!, Catch The Official Comic-Con U.S. Trailer!
In the late hours of Thursday evening, Well Go USA Entertainment and streaming imprint Hi-YAH! were on hand at Comic Con International: San Diego to promote the upcoming release of Hugo Sakamoto’s Baby Assassins.
The official trailer is now online for the hit action comedy, which stars Akari Takaishi and Saori Izawa as two lazy high schoolers moonlighting as career assassins for a private organization with just one important caveat: Their expenses will no longer be covered, forcing them to get regular day jobs when they graduate.
Whether or not they can unlearn their sociopathic tendencies and acclimate to societal norms long enough as functioning members of society remains to be seen. However, when their last job ultimately puts them in the crosshairs of an unruly yakuza boss and his incorrigible children, it’s an all-or-nothing fight for survival.
Baby Assassins also stars Takashi Nishina, Yasukaze Motomiya, Nagiko Tsuji, Tsubasa Tobinaga, Masanori Mimoto, Yukina Fukushima and Mone Akitani. The film is now streaming on Hi-YAH!, and will release on Digital, Blu-Ray and DVD on August 16. Click here for my review!
