* RiddleForTheAges: Because of the quick cancellation of the manga, the reader ends up never learning anything about ''The Fang'', only that it is what Tenmaku considers his magnum opus of which only a handful of grand auteur directors can bring to the screen, that it was eventually made ten years after the events of the manga, and, presumably, has a female lead for Kurai to play. Elements of the movie like plot, genre, etc. are never explained.

* TakeOurWordForIt: Tenmaku's script for ''The Shore'' is so incredible and moving that everybody who reads it starts crying. The reader, however, only knows the overview of the plot of the script.
* TeenGenius: Tenmaku is of such a level as a screenwriter that a legendary director agreed to film his movie when he was still in high school. Similarly, a up-and-coming actress is trying to give herself time to be in his short film after his script impresses her.

* Chapter 7 has the characters mentioning by name the live-action adaptation of ''Manga/ThePromisedNeverland'' as an example of editing that can make two places look connected even when they aren't. [[note]]In filming, the inside of the building and the outside were two different locations for recording. Editing was used to make it seem that they aren't.[[/note]]

** Of course a small school club couldn't afford professional filming equipment. The people involved film the scenes of ''The Shore'' using their own smartphones, but with equipment like phone cages to make it steadier.

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: As Chapter 4 shows, there is a vast difference between seeing a place often and location scouting. Shinichi has to notice that some places where he might want to record their movie is simply impossible due to being a packed place and he would need permission from the local police to start recording, and even then he would capture people in the background when he shouldn't.

** Despite the fact that the school in ''The Shore'' is supposed to be by the ocean, Shinichi and the crew use their own school to film scenes, despite being landlocked. It would be a waste of both time and money if they kept traveling to a school that met the criteria. Thus, the plan is to edit the film to make it look like their school is by the ocean.

* ContrastingSequelProtagonist: Shinichi, to the protagonist of the creators's previous work, Yukihira Soma. Soma is skilled, experienced, and confident to the point of even downright cocky at times. Shinichi, by contrast, is passionate about the manga's topic, but shy and never had to do anything related to it besides appreciating movies, not even picturing it as something he could do.

* ActorInspiredElement: InUniverse. Once Kurai gets invested in playing Nagisa for Tenmaku and Shinichi's "The Shore", she starts developing her character more, including her likes and dislikes and the kinds of faces she would make.



* ReferenceOverdosed: Not surprising, considering the three major characters of the story are massive movie buffs (two of which were already involved in the industry to begin with). The story makes both references to major movies that are broadly known by everyone, as well as more high-brow movies that would be popular with movie enthusiasts, like ''Film/TheFourHundredBlows'' and ''Film/ParisTexas''.

''Tenmaku Cinema'' is a 2023 {{Shounen}} manga, with art by Shun Saeki, and story by Yuuto Tsukuda; the pair behind ''Manga/FoodWars''.

The story follows movie buff teenager Hajime Shinichi, who comes across the ghost of a mysterious teenager screenwriter, Takihiko Tenmaku, who, supposedly, wrote a script before his death set to be turned into a movie by legendary director Ryu Shirakawa. Unable to move on due to his unfinished business, Tenmaku demands that, in his stead, Shinichi take up his script, bring it to Shirakawa, and finally make his movie real. However, his dream is moot, Shirakawa died 20 years prior to their meeting.

After failed attempts to get Tenmaku to pass on, Tenmaku and Shinichi cross paths with Hinaki Kurai, Shinichi's schoolmate and a rising star of Japan's movie industry as an actress. Tenmaku immediately gets a strike of inspiration and writes a new short movie while possessing Shinichi and asks of Kurai to star as the lead for that production. To Shinichi's surprise, Kurai agrees, being absolutely floored by the script, putting Shinichi straight into a director's chair for Tenmaku's movie.
