The movie was played on more than 310 cinema screens across Japan on its opening day, attracting more than 170,000 people.
Ninomiya was accompanied by Ko Shibasaki (29), Maki Horikita (22), and Hiroshi Tamaki (30) as 1600 (Ohiri-bukuro)* with 5-yen coins** inside were given out to those who had come to see the movie on Saturday.
“Please use this money to come and see the movie again,” Ninomiya said.
The star and his co-star Tamaki continued to promote the movie by confessing their feelings for one another.
“My idea of the perfect man would be Tamaki-san. There’s no one as beautiful as him,” Ninomiya said.
“I took up this role because Nino was starring in the movie,” Tamaki said.
(Ohiri-bukuro) are specials bags with money inside that are given out as thank you gifts after big business successes.
** 5-yen coins are a type of lucky charm in Japanese culture, the way the word is said, “go-en”, is the same as the word for “fate” or “destiny”.
