Hato Tama's age-gap BL manga 'Ettchi na Oshiri ja Dame desu ka?' is being adapted into a live-action drama for DMM TV, premiering late night on July 6. Sho Sakai, 24, and Yuki Kimizawa, 41, star as the leads, mirroring the source material's 17-year age gap. A key visual and a June 21 preview event have been announced.
The drama is directed by Miyako Yashima. Sakai plays pure college student Rannosuke Hisaki, and Kimizawa plays mysterious company president Hideaki Okumi. The story follows Rannosuke, who is saved from a groper on a train by Okumi and later discovers Okumi is the president of the company where he will work. The manga's seventh volume releases July 9, three days after the drama premiere. A first-episode preview event with the cast will be held June 21 at HADO ARENA Odaiba Grand Stage in Tokyo, featuring a talk show and send-off. Tickets go on sale May 30 on a first-come basis.
