According to Canned Dogs, Takeru Nagayoshi’s manga Sumire 16!! is getting made into a live-action TV drama. The manga follows a high school girl named Sumire who is actually a puppet being carried around by a creepy old man. It’s actually a sequel to Nagayoshi’s Sumire 17, which I’m guessing is similar in plot.
