ABEMA's MOGURA Sequel Sets Pxrge Trxxxper Opposite Hannya
Booking the RAPSTAR 2025 winner as co-lead in the MOGURA sequel shows the audition program feeding ABEMA's own drama slate rather than ending at the finale.
Reporting from 1 source: KAI-YOU.
The sequel to ABEMA's crime drama Metropolitan Police Department Narcotics Division MOGURA will stream all six episodes free from 21:00 on Wednesday, December 23. Rapper Hannya returns as lead, playing former police officer and rapper Shokichi Izanagi. RAPSTAR 2025 winner Pxrge Trxxxper joins as co-lead Legion, a young rapper drawn into crime, in his acting debut.
The drama's original idea comes from rapper Kan a.k.a. GAMI, with Osamu Suzuki on planning and production. Kentaro Shima and Koga Minami direct, and Yoshitatsu Yamada, Masaki Nishigaki and Tsubasa Okazaki write the scripts. BABEL LABEL, the company led by Michihito Fujii, produces.
The sequel moves into dark part-time jobs and tokuryu, anonymous criminal groups that pull young people into crime. Legion's story runs through that: a rapper trying to climb out of a harsh environment through music, swallowed by the organizations. Pxrge Trxxxper said he took the offer during a period of worrying about what to do after winning. Hannya said the sequel has more cast and a larger scale than the previous work.
