■“I would be happy if you could find some hints to keep your mind healthy and upright.” (Mone Kamishiraishi)
TV Asahi drama premium “Reigen Ohatsu ~ Shiveru Iwa ~”, which is the first film adaptation of Miyuki Miyabe’s masterpiece historical novel starring Mone Kamishiraishi, will be broadcast from 9pm on May 4th.
Just before the broadcast, a message arrived from Mone Kamishiraishi and Taiga Kyomoto (SixTONES), who play the uneven buddies in the drama.
“Miracle Ohatsu ~Shivering Rock~” is about Ohatsu (Mone Kamishiraishi), a town girl who is endowed with a mysterious power = “spiritual power”, and Furusawa Ukyonosuke (Kyomoto Taiga), a “herbivore” apprentice. is a large-scale special drama that exquisitely combines historical drama and mystery, approaching the mystery of a bizarre series of murders that occurred in the town of Edo.
In addition to Kamishiraishi and Kyomoto, the cast includes Yajuro Bando, Shinnosuke Mitsushima, Masahiro Takashima (Taka is officially spelled Hashigodaka), Kana Kurashina, Maho Nonami, Ryosuke Ally, Masato Wada, and Mamoru Miyano. By adding VFX to the filming techniques cultivated by the staff at Toei’s Kyoto studio, the “sacred place for historical dramas,” we are creating a historical drama like no other.
Will Ohatsu and Ukyonosuke be able to solve the mystery of the mysterious serial murders!? What is the unknown truth about Chushingura that the two of them have discovered…!? The birth of a new historical drama heroine, “Meiji Ohatsu”. Let’s witness the moment.
■Mone Kamishiraishi (role Ohatsu) Comment
“Miracle Ohatsu – Trembling Rocks” is a story about how people’s “thoughts” are expressed beyond time. It is a very realistic depiction of what the human heart is and how thoughts are conveyed. There are many unscientific incidents that occur, but this work made me feel that “maybe this kind of mysterious world really exists” and “the strong feelings of humans may even transcend time and space.”
This drama is also a story about how Ohatsu and Ukyonosuke live their lives. I hope many people will take a look at it and find some hints on how to keep their minds healthy and straight.■Comment from Taiga Kyomoto (role of Ukyonosuke Furusawa)
I play Ukyonosuke, and many of the characters in this work are clumsy. Each of them is struggling to protect their way of life and what is important to them without running away… There are some tragedies that arise because of struggles, and the clumsiness of each person leads to various incidents and phenomena.
Ukyonosuke’s role is to find his own way to live even though he has conflicts. I hope that everyone can relate to your own experiences and reconsider how you live and your life.
I think some of the younger generation may have never experienced a historical drama, but this work is packed with many elements that make it easy to get into the world of the story, so it’s perfect for those watching a historical drama for the first time. I think. Please take a look!
