[Movie] Assassination Classroom Graduation

Mar 29, 2016 12:22

The sequel to the successful 2015 movie Assassination Classroom has been released in March 25, 2016. The first movie opened at #1 last year, also in spring season with around 400 millions yen in the first weekend. And this year, Koro Sensei lead the squad in a full force, successfully withhold the superhero squad led by Batman and Superman and knocked down Doraemon and his 4 BFFs from the top of Japan Box Office, dated 26-27 March 2016.



The sequel came back in 1 year gap, with the same cast. Ryosuke Yamada portrays the plain and girly student Nagisa, and Masaki Suda also made a comeback to play the somewhat villainous but kind student, Karma. Yamamoto Maika get more screen time in this second movie after Kayano's real identity get revealed. Kippei Shina and Kang Jiyoung still play the duo teacher.

But Arashi fans can feel happy for Ninomiya Kazunari made appearance in screen after only his voice can be heard in the first movie. He became 1 of 3 new actors to join the cast. The other two are Mirei Kiritani, portrays the previous homeroom teacher of class E and love interest of Koro Sensei (yes, the octopus can fall in love) and Hiroki Narimiya, portrays the crazy scientist who made Koro Sensei 'Koro Sensei' with his experiment.

I haven't watch the movie so I can't give a review, I plan to watch it in April 20 when this movie debut in international market. I will write a review after.
