The live-action movie adaptation of the Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan: At a Confessional story has received a main trailer and main visual.
The movie is scheduled to premiere in Japan on May 23 JST.
Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan is Hirohiko Araki‘s spin-off of his JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure series, consisting of a number of tales focused on the titular character. At a Confessional dates back to 1997 and is the first Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan story, though it is labelled as Episode 16.
The Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan manga has inspired OVA episodes, a drama series, and the 2023 movie Rohan at the Louvre. Netflix’s synopsis for the At a Confessional OVA reads:
Rohan retells the story of a time he accidentally overheard a bone-chilling confession at a church in Venice.
Meanwhile, Viz Media describes the first volume of Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan stories as:
Debuting in the same deluxe hardcover format as the hit JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure manga is a standalone series featuring everyone’s favorite manga artist, Rohan Kishibe! Rohan has freed himself of Josuke Higashikata, but that doesn’t mean his life is going to be easy! No, now the supernatural has come knocking, and Rohan must contend with an all-new level of bizarre adventure…
