Aniplex began streaming the second full trailer for Suki ni Naru Sono Shunkan o: Kokuhaku Jikkō Iinkai (I wait for the moment you love me. Confession Executive Committee), the second anime film inspired by the HoneyWorks musical group's Kokuhaku Jikkō Iinkai ~Renai Series~ (Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~) Vocaloid songs, on Tuesday. (Note: The linked videos are region-locked to Japan.)





The new trailer previews the movie's insert song "Suki to Suki no Hōteishiki" (Love-Plus-Love Equation) by "HoneyWorks meets Mafumafu." The song is a collaboration between HoneyWorks and singer-songwriter Mafumafu.

Sony Music (Japan) is also streaming a music video for the song "Sempai." by HoneyWorks meets TrySail. The song's single goes on sale on Wednesday.

Idol group Nogizaka46 members Sayuri Matsumura, Manatsu Akimoto, Kotoko Sasaki, and Miria Watanabe are voicing characters in the film. Matsumura (leftmost in picture below) voices the character Kako, a friend of the heroine in the film, while Akimoto, Sasaki, and Watanabe (second, third, fourth from left, respectively) voice female extras.

In addition, HoneyWorks is collaborating with Nogizaka46 for the anime's ending theme song titled "Daikirai na Hazu datta," which is credited as a "HoneyWorks meets Sayuringo Gundan (Sayuri Matsumura) + Manatsu-san Respect Gundan (Manatsu Akimoto)" song. Sayuri and Akimoto are performing the song, which HoneyWorks wrote and composed. The song received a digital release on December 7.

The film was originally slated to open this summer, but was pushed back to December 17.

The film will center around the HoneyWorks songs "Ima Suki ni Naru" (I'm Falling in Love Now) and "Sankaku Jealousy" (Triangle Jealousy). The film shares the same title as the musical group's third and latest album, which it released in July 2015. The first film was based on the "Kokuhaku Yokō Renshū" (Confession Rehearsal), "Hatsukoi no Ehon" (The Picture Book of the First Love), and "Yakimochi no Kotae" (The Answer to Jealousy) songs.
