Fans of the hit survival drama series Love You As The World Ends may now ready themselves as Toho preps its theatrical finale to the hit show, coming January 26. Series regulars Ryoma Takeuchi (Akira And Akira) and Ayami Nakajo (Tokyo MER: Mobile Emergency Room – The Movie) reprise their roles joining a cast of new and returning faces from the hit show that firstly launched in 2021 via NTV and continued onward through Hulu Japan and Netflix Japan.
Shintaro Sugawara, who shepherded the first two seasons of the four-part drama, directs the feature-length final entry which follows up on the story of Hibiki (Takeuchi) and Kurumi (Nakajo) as they fight desperately to survive the post-apocalyptic wasteland now riddled with zombies known as Golems. As the plot hints, the film’s story take its cues on some of the shocking twists of season two and will focus on Hibiki’s mission to rescue his daughter Mirai, who potentially holds the key to curing victims of the Golem virus.
Actors Fumiya Takahashi and Mayu Hotta also star. Presumably the new film’s “FINAL” subtitle may be an indicator as the end to Hibiki’s story with a fifth season of the show still possibly up for grabs. In the meantime, hit the play button and check out the teaser below for what’s to come!
