The first manga of the Japanese author Kanna Kii becomes an anime. It's titled Umibe no Étranger and is expected in theaters in Japan in September. Below the first teaser.
Umibe no Étranger or L'étranger du Plage (The Stranger on the Beach) is produced by Studio Hibari and directed and written by Akiyo Ohashi (Sakura Capsule). The manga's author Kanna Kii, a former animator, is a supervisor of the film and author of character design.
The story features Mio, a high school boy who lost his parents at an early age.
