Apparently this movie, which is currently slated for release only in Japan, is a live-action version of a classic anime story. Looks like these folks have decided that after the somewhat disappointing (but beautiful) CG movie Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, live action is the way to go. All I can say is that the trailer looks amazing, and makes me hope that a subtitled version will eventually reach the U.S. Heck, I might even watch this one without subtitles (ok, not really, but it it's close).
