Look Back, the acclaimed film based on the manga by Chainsaw Man’s Tatsuki Fujimoto, will start streaming on Amazon Prime Video November 7.
The film, which was released in Japan this June, was directed by Kiyotaka Oshiyama (Flip Flappers) at his Studio Durian. It received a theatrical release in the US via GKIDS, which describes it like this:
Popular, outgoing Fujino is celebrated by her classmates for her funny comics in the class newspaper. One day, her teacher asks her to share the space with Kyomoto, a truant recluse whose beautiful artwork sparks a competitive fervor in Fujino. What starts as jealousy transforms when Fujino realizes their shared passion for drawing.
Based on the acclaimed manga by Tatsuki Fujimoto, the creator of “Chainsaw Man”, Look Back captures the highs and lows of pursuing artistic excellence and the special bonds formed through creative collaboration. The heart-wrenching story is the stunning feature-length directorial debut from Kiyotaka Oshiyama that will leave you in tears and inspire you to chase your own artistic dreams.
In Japan, the film has become a sleeper hit, earning over 2 billion yen.
