The story follows Kindaichi to Okayama, where young women in the village are killed and their bodies decorated in ways that echo a local temari song. Yasuko Kobayashi wrote the screenplay, and Teruyuki Yoshida directed. The drama aired ahead of time on BS Premium 4K in March. Scene photos released with the announcement show Miyazawa playing the shamisen, Yoshioka with Inspector Tachibana at the home of Tatara Hoan, and a wake at the Yura family.","whyItMatters":"NHK is pairing the two-part premiere with rebroadcasts of Akuma ga Kitarite Fue o Fuku on November 8 and both parts of The Inugami Family on November 15 and 22, turning three consecutive weeks of BS slots into a run through the series before the new title arrives.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eNHK named twelve supporting cast members with the announcement.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaiken Okudaira as Aoi Kanō, Rika\u0026#39;s eldest son\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatsuki Deguchi as Aoi Satoko, his younger sister\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMizuki Yoshida as Ozora Yukari, the village-born singer\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToshihiro Wada as Tachibana Shinzō, the Okayama Prefectural Police inspector\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMegumi Okina as Bessho Harue\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMisa Shimizu as Yura Atsuko\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNaomi Nishida as Nire Saki\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKazuyuki Asano as Honda Kaname\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTakashi Sasano as Tatara Hōan, descendant of the village headman\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTokuma Nishioka as Nire Kahei\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKayoko Shiraishi as Yura Ioko\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMantarō Koichi as Iso River Tsunejirō\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYoshioka said in a comment published by Cinema Today: \u0026#34;Taking part in this Kindaichi series is truly frightening... the formidable foes (my co-stars) who appear before this Kindaichi are, every single time, amazing people.\u0026#34; Miyazawa said: \u0026#34;I am truly happy to reunite with Mr. Yoshioka, who plays Kindaichi, and to have spent such dense time together as Aoi Rika.\u0026#34;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYasuko Kobayashi\u0026#39;s other credits include the anime Attack on Titan and the Kishibe Rohan wa Ugokanai drama and film series.
