Plot

Kantaro decides to plan a big event in honor of Shige, the arcade’s chairman and a person who has been running a wooden clog shop for 30 years. However, his true objective is to reconcile Shige and his friend Nobu after they have a fight.

But Kantaro’s little white lie ends up growing, turning his meddlesome plan into a mess.

Cast

Production

Waya! Uchuu Ichi no Osekkai Daisakusen was first announced on 26 July 2011.[2] It will be directed by the director Kohatsu Yo,[3] who previously directed the film Chikujo seyo!.[4]

Director Kohatsu Yo held an audition for all 57 SKE48 members at their theater in Nagoya.[5] In the end, members Matsui Jurina and Yagami Kumi were selected for roles in this film.[5] This will be the first time that either of them will star in a film.[6] Matsui Jurina will star as the granddaughter of Shige.[6] At the time of the filming, Matsui was only 13 years old, even though her character in the film is 18 years old.[3] Yagami Kumi will also play the role of a character 2–3 years older than her. She remarked that "the feeling of playing the role of an elder sister to Matsui Jurina is a little strange".[2]

Release

Waya! Uchuu Ichi no Osekkai Daisakusen will first be released in Nagoya cinemas on 29 October 2011.[1][7] It will then be released at a later date in other parts of Japan.[7]
