The official website for Hajime Kamoshida's Seishun Buta Yarō light novel series, began streaming the film's first commercial on Saturday. (Note: The video on the official website is region locked to Japan only; a region-free version is below.)
The film will open in 2019, and will adapt the sixth and seventh light novel volumes, Seishun Buta Yarō wa Yume-Miru Shōjo no Yume wo Minai and Seishun Buta Yarō wa Hatsukoi Shōjo no Yume wo Minai (The Young Pig-Rascal Isn't Dreaming of a First-Love Girl).
The film project follows not only the main characters Sakuta Azusagawa and Mai Sakurajima, but also a mysterious girl named Shōko Makinohara. The story depicts when each of their feelings and wishes intersect.
The all-female band fox capture plan composed the song. The idol group Sweet Bullet is singing the insert song "BABY!"
Keeji Mizoguchi provides the illustrations. Kadokawa published the ninth volume on October 10.
The light novel series begins with a rumor about a mysterious phenomenon call "puberty syndrome." For example, Sakuta Azusagawa is a high school student who suddenly sees a bunny girl appear in front of him. The girl is Mai Sakurajima, Sakuta's upperclassman and also a famous actress who has gone on hiatus from the entertainment industry. For some reason, the people around Mai cannot see her bunny-girl figure. Sakuta sets out to solve this mystery, and as he spends time with Mai, he learns her secret feelings. Other heroines who have "puberty syndrome" start to appear in front of Sakuta.
