TBS confirmed the October Tuesday drama slot will feature Mone Kamishiraishi in a dual role, playing both an Edo-period courier's daughter and a Reiwa-era elementary school teacher. The series, "Iroha no Koi wa Toki o Kakeru," begins when the Edo girl's soul time-slips into the modern teacher's body.
Koji Mukai of Snow Man appears as her colleague, a teacher who ends up looking after her after witnessing the time-slip. Kamishiraishi last led a TBS Tuesday drama about five years ago, while Mukai is new to the slot and to working with her.
The script comes from Ikue Osada, with Masako Miyazaki producing. The series is set to air weekly on Tuesday nights at 10 p.m. from October.
