The hugely popular josei manga and anime series Honey and Clover (a.k.a. Hachimitsu to Kuroubaa) has been adapted into a full-length live action feature film! Starring Sakurai Sho (Kisarazu Cats Eye), Iseya Yusuke (Casshern), Aoi Yu (Hana and Alice), and other rising young stars, Honey and Clover follows a group of wistful students through the ups and downs of college life and young love.
Yuuta (Sakurai Sho), Takumi (Kase Ryo), and Shinobu (Iseya Yusuke) live together whilst studying at art college. Money is tight but they find ways to amuse themselves, especially after they are introduced to new first-year student Hagumi (Aoi Yu). The quiet Yuuta and the forward Shinobu both immediately take a liking to her. Meanwhile, Mayama is off chasing an older woman, blind to the affections of the popular Ayumi (Seki Megumi) who is secretly in love with him.
