Production press conference of "Toshokan Sensou"

The production press conference of movie "Toshokan Sensou" was held on 19 March which was attended by V6's Okada Junichi, Eikura Nana, Ishizaka Koji, Tanaka Kei and Fukushi Sota. The science-fiction movie which is based on the novel by Arikawa Hiro and due to be shown in cinemas from 27 April, features a books team under the Self Defence Forces which strives to ensure freedom in reading books in a future Japan where there is censorship of books. Being the first time that they worked time, Okada and Eikura revealed episodes of their interaction which seemed to suggest that they found it hard to hit it off despite playing lovers in the movie. Okada commented that he would always see Eikura eating senbei or she would sometimes come and tell him what she ate the previous date which he didn't know how to react to. On the other hand, Eikura said that Okada looked rather intimidating to her so she found it hard to approach him and talk.

During the event, there was a game where Eikura had to decide on who she liked most to pat her hair while the men stood behind her (her character found the feeling of this action unforgettable since that's something which a guy she used to like did to her) found it hard to forget. Although Okada was her lover in the movie, Eikura ended up choosing the director Sato Shinsuke in the end.
