2006 film adapts 1987 shojo manga
Sentai Filmworks announced on Wednesday that it has licensed the live-action film Arch Angels (Warau Michael), which adapts Izumi Kawahara's 1987 Warau Michael shojo manga. The company plans to release the film digitally and on home video.
Issei Oda directed the 2006 film. The film was screened internationally as Arch Angels.
Sentai Filmworks describes the story:
In this live-action film based on the manga of the same name, St. Michael's is an elite Catholic boarding school nestled on a beautiful remote island, and it is the quintessence of sophistication. Within the grounds of this aristocratic haven, high school students Fumio, Kazune and Yuzuko discover that they have something in common: they just don't fit in. After several girls from wealthy families are kidnapped one after another, everyone becomes wary and apprehensive. When an unexpected force infuses the three girls with special powers, the fate of the school and its attendees might just be in the hands of these misfits.
