This upcoming Netflix series, based on the "otaku"-hit When They Cry franchise, is set during June 1983 in a fictional rural town called Chickenmire, which has a population of approximately two thousand.
The main character, Kenneth McNamara, moves to Chickenmire and befriends his new classmates: the lovable weirdo Rosie Ryans, down-to-Earth rich girl Madison Seabridge, the adorable tomboy Rika "Ricky" Frederickson, and the ever-tricky youngster Samantha Hawthorne!
Kenneth joins their after-school club activities, which consist mostly of card games and board games (and punishment games for the loser – usually him). Chickenmire appears to be a normal, peaceful, backwoods town to Kenneth.
However, the tranquility abruptly ends after the annual Cotton-picking Festival, a celebration to commemorate and give thanks to the local voodoo goddess, Oyashiro. Kenneth learns that every year for the past four years, one person has been murdered, and another has gone missing on the evening of the Cotton-picking Festival. Kenneth himself soon becomes drawn into the strange events surrounding the Cotton-picking Festival and the curse of Oyashiro.
Featuring the mystery of a lifetime, as well as all those nostalgic tunes from the 80s that you love, such as,

>>The main character, Kenneth McNamara, moves to Chickenmire and befriends his new classmates: the lovable weirdo Rosie Ryans, down-to-Earth rich girl Madison Seabridge, the adorable tomboy Rika "Ricky" Frederickson, and the ever-tricky youngster Samantha Hawthorne! Why do western live action anime adaptations always go with the most absolutely generic names possible? It's like its a conscious decision.
