■ Comment from Anne Nakamura
Thank you so much! Good job!
It should have been really hard work, but thanks to everyone, it was really fun.
I’m relieved to have made it through today safely.
I can’t do it alone, so I need everyone’s help.
“The Promise” is truly important to me and has become a treasure to me. Thank you so much!■ Comment from Yu Yokoyama
The filming period was about three months, and when it began I thought it would never end, so it was difficult, but I was able to get through it thanks to the friendly atmosphere created by the staff.
Everyone’s professional work really created a great atmosphere on set, and although the pieces themselves were heavy and difficult to work with, it was fun coming here every day.
It was a pleasure to meet all the staff.
I’m relieved that it’s over, but I still feel a little sad.
Thank you very much for the past three months!
