Moegara's essay 'Kono Aji mo Mata Itsuka Koishiku Naru' has been adapted as a two-part NHK BS drama starring Issei Takahashi. The trailer, released November 6, shows BE:FIRST's LEO in the role listed on the official website as a silver-haired man.
Moegara's essay 'Kono Aji mo Mata Itsuka Koishiku Naru' is the source for a two-part NHK BS drama. NHK set the broadcast dates in September: Part 1 on November 14 at 9:00 PM and Part 2 on November 21 at 9:00 PM. The drama stars Issei Takahashi, and a key visual was out at that point.
The September announcement also placed LEO of BE:FIRST in the second part, in a role that was not announced at the time. The November 6 trailer filled that in. LEO appears in the trailer wearing a bandana, and the official website lists him as a silver-haired man. The role is small but named.
Across the two stories, the production has moved from a dated cast announcement to a trailer that shows one of the cast members on screen. The broadcast dates have not changed between the two stories. What the stories establish is the schedule, the lead, and LEO's billed appearance. They do not describe the essay's content or the size of the role beyond the trailer and the website listing.
