Io Sakisaka, the author of Love Me, Love Me Not manga, is an expert on the genre of romance among teenagers and young adults. Her works, “Strobe Edge,” “Aoha Ride,” and “Love Me, Love Me Not” makeup the youth romance trilogy.
Love Me, Love Me Not explores the raw, passionate love of the youth. Their journey of self-discovery through love is portrayed beautifully by the manga, which will be available as an anime movie soon.
TOHO Animation has released an official trailer for the Love Me, Love Me Not movie on their Youtube channel.
The trailer probes into the lives of four high school students who become interconnected with each other.
Through the trailer, we get a glimpse of Akari, Yuna, Rio, and Kazuomi going through the hassles of life while simultaneously discovering who their heart wants.
The trailer is accompanied by the theme song “Gravity” performed by the Japanese rock band, Bump Of Chicken. The song beautifully matches the tempo of the anime and its lovey-dovey feelings.
Love Me, Love Me Not will be releasing in Japan on 18th September. It will have a runtime of 103 minutes. Toshimasa Kuroyanagi (Shonen Hollywood – Holly Stage for 49) has directed the film at A-1 Pictures (Blue Exorcist).

A limited-edition calendar will be given to those who book the advance tickets. The calendar contains an illustration of the characters from the “Youth Trilogy” series.
Akari, Yuna, Rio, and Kazuomi from “Love Me, Love Me Not” are sandwiched between Ninako and Ren from “Strobe Edge” and Futaba from “Aoha Ride” in the special illustration.
