    20 years have passed since the first clone sheep Dolly was born. With regenerative medical techniques evolutionally advancing over those years, regeneration of human organs, which was thought to be impossible, has become a reality. While regeneration offers a broad range of possibilities, human beings are now trying to play God, to “re-create life.” When we lose someone we love, are we allowed to regenerate their life or even bodies?

    Reminds me a bit of Never Let Me Go.
    But we all know this will be worse lol

    Also, why do some films/series go in the Subunit/Solo subforum and others go here? :/

    Nice lineup we got here. I believe that after AkiP watched "The Night Billy Raised Hell" segment on Tales of Halloween movie, AkiP decided that he will bring the trio who made the segment to Japan for a new kind of scary.

    The storyline looks interesting and I'm liking the teasers too! And I love that Mayuyu and Sakura are leads since I love both of them <3 :"> and other AKB members will have roles too, like Yukirin etc., it's nice!!! Jurina looks scary XD I'm looking forward to this drama, and of course I hope it gets subbed.

    Here's a video of the press conference for the drama, a month ago on 19 May. The director is there with Mayuyu and Sakura. He speaks in english so it's interesting to watch, he said good things about the girls ^-^

    The video also has an english description:

    Mayu Watanabe of AKB48 & Sakura Miyawaki of HKT48 co-star in drama co-produced by Japan and United States. Express expectation to make debut in Hollywood. Press conference on Hulu's drama "CROW’S BLOOD"

    It was revealed on May 19th that Mayu Watanabe of the famous idol group “AKB48” and Sakura Miyawaki of "HKT48" will co-star in Hulu's original drama "CROW’S BLOOD" - which is co-produced by Japan and the United States.

    Darren Lynn Bousman - who is the director of the horror movie series "Saw", will serve as the Executive Producer. Watanabe said excitedly: "This may be a big chance to make debut in Hollywood. I want to participate in works which are paid attention by many people". Miyawaki also expressed enthusiasm: "I will try to become a Hollywood actress coming from Hulu."

    Yeah I'm pretty sure this should be in the subforum since it's billed as just Mayuyu and Sakura leads with the other members in side roles. It's not MG where a dozen or more members have main roles, or like the horror/love night series' with 40 main roles.

    The subunit/solo subforum is for subunit and solo. If a subunit has a drama/single, or a member has an individual drama/single, then it goes there. For example no3b's drama Mendol, Mayuyu's drama Sabadol, Yukirin's drama Mieriino Kashiwagi, Acchan's movie Initiation Love, Paruru's movie Gekijourei... Mayuyu and Sakura aren't a subunit, and this isn't an individual project either, this drama is more like a 48G drama (other members have roles in it too). Like Sailor Zombie. So I think it's in the right section. Besides it looks like the drama is completely focused on them, not like Bakaleya where most of the drama focused on the Johnny's actors (I guess for a drama like Bakaleya, it should probably be in the subunit/solo section).

    @Mana got it. It was just a technical question. I did have the feeling that it was more fitting here than down there lol

    Agree to disagree then. I just feel that if it features only two members of 48 group in the main cast it doesn't really belong in the group forum.

    Two of the members are leads and seven more members have roles. They're neither sub-units or a solo. Sailor Zombie is up here in this sub-forum and only six members have roles. Gekijourei k.n. Jotaijo is also up here and only ten members are involved. The ShortShorts project is up here and only 9 members are involved. All of them are neither sub-units or involved in a drama solo.

    So yeah, the thread belongs here.

    as much as I am sick of AKB horrors (and horrors in general) this one actually looks good. hoping for something even better than Majisuka 4.
