The anime film Toritsukare Otoko will be released in Japanese theaters on November 7, 2025. Based on the novel of the same name by Ishi Shinji, the production tells the story of the young Giuseppe, who, due to his tendency to completely immerse himself in individual activities, bears the nickname "The Scatterbrained." His encounter with the balloon seller Petchka develops into an unusual love story.

Director Takahashi Wataru (known for Crayon Shin-chan: Serious Battle! Robot Dad Strikes Back) and screenwriter Miura Naoyuki adapt the material as a musical anime. The character design is by Araka Masatsugu, while Studio Shin-Ei Animation (Doraemon, Crayon Shin-chan) is responsible for the production.

Cast and music:

- Sano Shōya (Aぇ! group) voices and sings the role of Giuseppe.

- Kamishiraishi Moka provides the voice and singing for Petchka.

- The band Awesome City Club (atagi) composed five original pieces for the film, including the title Fanfare ～Koi ni Ukarete～ used in the trailer.
