I hope Your Lie in April adds color to the viewers world as well. Im new to the piano, but Im practicing hard every day so I can express Koseis flux of emotions in the music. The concert scenes in the original manga are so dynamic that you can almost hear the music. Portraying the struggles and challenges of a musical prodigy is challenging, but with the support of Director Shinjo, the staff and cast members, I tried my best to embody Kosei Arima.
Likewise, Kento Yamazaki shared that the film taught him that everyday, life is full of color. Together with the director and cast, I hope to make Your Lie in April a beautiful film brimming with color, says Hirose of the film. Its still a struggle, but day by day, I am coming to terms with the violin as well as the role. In preparing for the role of Kaori, I touched a violin for the first time. When I read the script, I pictured a beautiful span of time, in which each character battles his or her own, personal issues. But one day, Kosei discovers that Kaori has a secret. Kaori aggressively urges Kosei to play with her, forcing him to face the painful memories of his mother.
Kaori is a willful free spirit, as ethereal as the clouds in the sky, and Kosei finds himself drawn to her unrestrained, exuberant performance. In April of his sophomore year in high school, Koseis childhood friends Tsubaki Sawabe (Anna Ishii) and Ryota Watari (Taishi Nakagawa) introduced him to a violinist named Kaori Miyazono (Hirose). But Kosie lost his ability to play when he lost his mother. Your Lie in April follows a musician with absolute perfection and mechanical precision, piano prodigy Kosie Arima (Yamazaki), is considered a human metronome. With the charm of Suzu Hirose, the sincerity of Kento Yamazaki, and a young, talented cast including Anna Ishii and Taishi Nakagawa, I hope to weave a tale of brilliant and heartfelt love, shared Shinjo. My goal is to deliver a film that leaves the viewers with a warm, gentle feeling.
