The “boy-meets-girl” story depicts how words and music bridge the gap between Cherry, a boy who is terrible at communicating with other people, and Smile, a girl who hides behind a mask. They meet in a mundane suburban shopping mall in a provincial city.

Cherry always wears headphones and puts the feelings he cannot utter into his hobby, Japanese haiku poems. Smile always wears a mask to conceal her large front teeth, for which she has dental braces.

As a popular video star, she streams a video about seeking “cuteness.”

Yep, this film is likely to be hella cute! And wow, the protagonists are adorable and the art style is gorgeous!

In anticipation of the film’s premiere, Netflix has uploaded a new Words Bubble Up Like Soda Pop trailer, which showcases the film’s adorable protagonists.

Watch it below, then mark your calendars for July 22nd.
