TV anime “Sayonara Lala” 2nd main PV
"Sayonara Lala", which will start broadcasting in July, is an original anime produced as a commemorative work for Kinema Citrus' 15th anniversary. The second main PV begins with a scene in which Lala, a mermaid princess with flowing red hair, is gazing at a prince underwater and thinking about the human world. Next, we see Lara's sad expression as she is sternly warned by Rowan, the king of the sea, ``Don't get close to humans, this is a serious rule,'' and the witch wonders, ``Are humans really ugly creatures?''・After the scene where she picks up the shiny medicine offered by Grace, Lala is shown running around on the ground, and the warm daily life of the high school boxer Mari Otsu and the people of Shiga surrounding her is vividly depicted. Additionally, the climax of the film is a scene in which Lala tearfully confesses her feelings with the sunset in the background, saying, ``I have fallen in love with humans, you, and me.''
Tomotaka Ohno will play Mari's older brother, Shoya Otsu, Mitsuaki Madono will play Mari's father, Makoto Otsu, and Nanae Sumitomo will play Mari's grandmother, Man Otsue. Additionally, Masaki Teraso will play the role of Rowan, the father of Lala and six other sisters who despises humans.
Ikimonogakari is in charge of the opening theme. The title of the song was ``Sayonara Lala'', which is the same as the title of the work. Part of the opening theme can also be heard in the second main PV. Along with these announcements, comments have arrived from the four new cast members and Ikimonogakari.
