Viz Media is publishing the manga in North America, and the publisher describes the story:

Takeo Gōda is a giant guy with a giant heart. Too bad the girls don't want him! (They want his good-looking best friend, Sunakawa.) Used to being on the sidelines, Takeo simply stands tall and accepts his fate. But one day when he saves a girl named Yamato from a harasser on the train, his (love!) life suddenly takes an incredible turn!

The film's official website previously streamed a trailer and a teaser for the film in August.

The film's main cast includes:

Ryohei Suzuki ( Gatchaman ) as Takeo Gōda

Mei Nagano ( Rurouni Kenshin ) as Rinko Yamato

Kentarō Sakaguchi ( Umimachi Diary ) as Makoto Sunakawa

Yasufumi Terawaki ( Boogiepop and Others ) and Yutaka Gōda (Takeo's father)

Sawa Suzuki ( Aibō ) as Yuriko Gōda (Takeo's mother)

Theaters began selling tickets with "Takeo's Earnest Calendar" on August 28.

Suzuki made and followed his own training regimen to gain 30 kilograms (more than 60 pounds) of weight to portray the role of the two-meter-tall (6.5-feet-tall), estimated 120-kilogram (260-pound) Takeo Gōda.

Hayato Kawai ( Suzuki Sensei ) is helming the project, and is working off of Akiko Nogi's ( Library War ) script. The film will premiere in Japanese theaters on October 31.

The manga has also inspired a television anime adaptation from Madhouse that premiered in April. Crunchyroll streamed the anime as it aired, and Sentai Filmworks licensed the series for home video.

Kawahara (High School Debut) first debuted the original 100-page version of the story in an issue of Bessatsu Margaret Sister in October 2011, but the manga then returned in Bessatsu Margaret as a serialized work with artist Aruko (Yasuko and Kenji) in April 2012. Shueisha published the ninth compiled book volume of the manga on June 25, and Viz published the fifth volume on July 7.

The series won Best Shojo Manga at the 37th Kodansha Manga Awards in 2013. Additionally, the series topped the list of Manga for Female Readers in the 2013 edition of the Kono Manga ga Sugoi! guidebook.
