On the official website of the animated adaptation of the manga written and illustrated by Kouji Kumeta, Kakushigoto (Kakushigoto: My Dad’s Secret Ambition), a new promotional video for the compilatory film, which will be called Kakushigoto: Himegoto wa Nandesuka, was posted.
The premiere is scheduled in Japanese cinemas and, despite being a compilation, it will include a variety of new scenes with a different perspective, as well as ‘another ending’ not shown in the animated television adaptation. The original series premiered in April 2020 and had a total of twelve episodes.
Synopsis:
The story of the comedy manga unfolds around Kakushi Gotoo, who does not want his daughter, Hime Gotoo, to know that he is a manga creator. The manga comedy focuses on the daily life of a family with a manga artist. In addition to being a joke with the father’s name, the ambiguous title can mean “Hidden Things”, but it can also be read as “Drawing Work”.
