Non will appear in the movie “Saotome Kanako no Case” starring Ai Hashimoto as the role of “A hotel suitable for me” Juri Arimori

■Following the movie “A Hotel Suitable for Me”, “Ai Hashimoto x Non” team up again!

It has been decided that Nonga will appear in the movie “Saotome Kanako no Case Ha” (released on March 14, 2025) starring Ai Hashimoto.

This work centers on the 10-year love story between Kanako Saotome, the main character who is more innocent and clumsy than anyone else, and who is unable to be easily indulged due to her overly masculine self-consciousness, and Nagatsuta, a senior in a theater club. This is a love struggle story that depicts each person reconsidering themselves while the people around them are confused.

The main character, Kanako Saotome, will be played by Ai Hashimoto, and the role of Nagatsuda will be played by Taishi Nakagawa, and directed by Hitoshi Yazaki, known for films such as “March Comes in Like a Lion” and “Strawberry Shortcakes.” A wide range of actors, from young to talented, will also appear, including Anna Yamada, Asami Usuda, Aoi Nakamura, Suzuka Neya, Sayu Kubota, Amon Hirai, Mutsuo Yoshioka, and Kota Kusano.

Non will appear in the film as “Juri Arimori,” a alias that Kayoko, the main character who plays in the movie “A Hotel Suitable for Me” (to be released on December 27th), writes a novel.

In the super special video that was released at the same time, Juri Arimori, played by Non, greets her by saying, “I’m Juri Arimori. Thank you very much.” To which Kanako says with a big smile, “Yes! Thank you very much!” He looks happy. In “A Hotel Suitable for Me,” the two played a new writer and a pink-haired bookstore clerk, but in this work, Arimori, who has become a popular author, and an aspiring black-haired editor who has decided to join a publishing company. She co-starred again in the role of Kanako Saotome. Let’s pay attention to how the two interact in the story and how it will develop.

Although this work has a love theme, it is more than just a love story. It carefully depicts the sisterhood, its conflicts with society, and the complex intertwining of human relationships, asking questions such as “What is love?” and “What is truly important?” This is a heart-touching work that anyone who has ever found themselves at a crossroads in life can relate to.

The must-see masterpiece love story “Kanako Hayato’s Case” will be released on March 14th.
