The upcoming new Mari Okada anime movie Alice to Therese no Maboroshi Koujou has received a dramatic main trailer.

The new trailer is packed with fresh footage that shed more light on the main characters’ dynamics and also previews the Miyuki Nakajima theme song “Shin-on.” 

Alice to Therese no Maboroshi Koujou will premiere in Japan on September 15. The MAPPA-produced movie is Okada’s (Anohana scriptwriter, Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans series composer) second directorial work after the 2018 P.A.Works-produced fantasy film Maquia: When the Promised Flower Blooms.

The plot revolves around three teenagers in a gloomy town that was the site of a steelworks explosion. Male protagonist Masamune Kikuiri (Junya Enoki) finds himself led by the engimatic Mutsumi Sagami (Reina Ueda) to the steelworks’ fifth blast furnace, where a feral girl called Itsumi (Misaki Kuno) resides. The encounter between these three breaks the balance of the world, and the unstoppable impulse to fall in love between boys and girls who are sick of everyday life begins its destruction.
