The CM was filmed at Fujiwara Heritage Park (Oshu City, Iwate Prefecture), a theme park built initially for the filming of an NHK period drama but now also open to visitors who want to re-live the Heian period. Kento said “It’s as though I’ve come to the Heian period, it feels intensely real.” During the filming, Kento also had a good time feeding the koi fishes in the pond.
After the filming, Kento said “This time, I time travelled to the Heian period, and have that fateful encounter with Murasaki Shikibu who looked exactly like the girl who dumped me. Everytime, whenever I film something, I have that once-in-a-lifetime encounter with people, and I feel that those are also important and fateful moments. In the CM, Wataru has the strangest of experiences time-traveling with a smart phone in one hand, and meeting various historical figures. I’d be glad if you could watch over him and how he matures.”
Thank you very much for translating. So glad Kento had fun doing the CM.
I hope there’s a making movie for this! I think when he fed the fishes, they came for the bait all at once and he panicked for a while lol
