Teen actress Nanami Sakuraba has been cast in the lead role of TV Asahi's drama special "Ghost Town no Hana." This is her first time starring in a show outside of cable television.
"Ghost Town no Hana" is based on a script that won last year's Shinjin Scenario Taisho, a competition for new screenwriters. The story is set in a failing new town, where a high school girl (Sakuraba) lives poorly with her father, his second wife, and the wife's two children. Through a friend, she meets a top-notch student and begins dating, but lacking in experience, she seeks advice from an otaku whose specialty is dating sim games.
Kento Nagayama, Haru, Masanobu Katsumura, and Noriko Watanabe also appear in the drama. The broadcast is scheduled for March 20 at 11:15pm.
