The anime movie "Misaki no Mayoiga" will be released in 2021. Author: Kashiwaba Sachiko It has been 10 years since the Great East Japan Earthquake. The victims that were affected by that dreadfulness, sadness, and bitterness, wish to forget about that immediately but I keep telling myself that it something that can't be forgotten. When we are talking about the disaster zone, it would be the Sanriku (the three former provinces of Rikuzen, Rikuchu, and Rikuo) but within these 10 years period, Japan started to have disaster zones as well, and now we are facing the corona disaster. I hope for a positive thought to stay in my heart. The story of Mayoiga is about the people who got lost in the mountain staying happily at Mayoiga. Just like the original work, I hope that "Misaki no Mayoiga" will also give happiness to those who encountered it. Let the positive thoughts filled your heart. I have a belief as well as an appreciation for this fantastic animation movie. Do pay a visit to the Kitsunezaki's Mayoiga. Director: Kawatsura Shinya The delicious meals and the smile of the person beside you. The fragrant tea and the entertaining conversation. The warm relationship that is not bound by the word, "family". "Misaki no Mayoiga" is a home for people, who required that kind of comfort. This is a place that you will come with your own will after having flexibility in the exhausted heart. Do step into Mayoiga with the girls while being surrounded by the gentle background and music at the theatre. Scriptwriter: Yoshida Reiko A person might not be able to live if he/she has doubts in the present, past, and future. I thought of this after reading the original work. I want to start now despite having doubts... I will try my best to make this work just like a house where you would want to come back to. （C）Kashiwaba Sachiko, Kodansha／2021 "Misaki no Mayoiga" Production Committee
