Today NHK announced that the composer for NHK’s new TV Drama 花子とアン (Hanako to Anne) will be Yuki Kajiura! The drama will start airing from March 31, 2014. till September. Yuki Kajiura in the past has composed for various dramas: Tsuki, Ruby Fruit, Tokyo Kyodai, Achilles to Kame and 15 Sai no Shiganhei, with all of them being movies, but its the first time she’s composing for a TV one 🙂
thank to nimsaj for the news!
[EDIT] You can visit this site for more info on the drama’s plot and cast.
Good news, but doing a lil research about this drama, it will be 156 episodes? o.o
So far the plan seems to be to air episodes from March to September, and if its popular they will probably continue it.
I’m not much appreciated with Yuki’s take on movie OST, but considering from its content about a life of a female translator from Meiji period to Showa period and a classic western literature she worked on, I’m looking forwards to a beautiful RHH-like OST…*w*. (+I’m a big fan of Anne of Green Gables…>.< Yuki..plzzzzz. How about visiting PEI for inspiration? lol…it's the cutest island I've visited!!)
