A new visual has been released for the theatrical version of the TV anime "My Dangerous Wife," based on the popular manga by Norio Sakurai that is currently being serialized on Akita Shoten's manga site, Manga Cross. The visual depicts a live performance by the band "Primary COLOR," whose vocalist and guitarist is Kana Ichikawa, the older sister of the main character Kyotaro Ichikawa and affectionately known as "Onee." The visual is accompanied by the tagline, "The world is constantly changing."
Yukari Tamura, who plays the role of "Onee-san," commented, "BokuYaba is in the theater! The love story of these two is in the theater! Onee-san's live performance scene is in the theater! You can see it!! I'm so happy to be able to participate this time again. I hope you'll watch the heart-warming, ticklish story of these two, which continues from the TV series, with a smile on your face. And please enjoy the continuation of Onee-san's band's live performance scene!"
