About Afterschool Diary: Countdown to Adulthood
Today, Ayaka, a student at an all-girls high school, saw a girl staring intently from the shadows of a phone booth at a boy who attends the neighboring high school. She gazed at him with a yearning heart, and that was all she could handle. Her best friends, sensing her feelings, one day took her to get a tarot card reading, half-jokingly. At first she was skeptical, but when she tried it, her love luck was 98%! Encouraged, Ayaka made her own business card and felt like she was in a dream. On her way home that day, she bumped into someone as she passed him. It was him! Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, she handed him her business card with trembling hands. Thanks to this, she was able to go on dates with him, but one day a strange incident occurred...
Directed by Kazuhito Kubodera, Afterschool Diary: Countdown to Adulthood leans on a strong ensemble — Kaori Asô, Rika Shimizu, Rin Takamura — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1996.
