Tokyo MX revealed on Wednesday that it is producing a live-action series adaptation of Ogeretsu Tanaka's Renai Rubi no Tadashii Furikata (The Right Way to Write Love) boys-love manga that will premiere on Tokyo MX1 on July 13. The series will have eight episodes, and will feature new story elements with original characters not present in the manga.
Genki Iwahashi stars in the series as Hiromu Suzuki (left in image above), and Satoru Sōma stars as Natsuo Washizawa (right).
Yasuki Satō is directing the series, with scripts by Motoko Takahashi.
The manga centers on Hiromu, who was once bullied by Natsuo in high school for his appearance and demeanor. After high school, Hiromu completely remade himself, going to beauty school and striving to make himself handsome. Now an adult working in a beauty parlor, Hiromu has a coincidental reunion with Natsuo, but Natsuo doesn't recognize him. After they grow closer and Natsuo admits he has feelings for him, Hiromu vows to break up with him in a grand way as revenge for being bullied.
Tanaka published the manga in 2015.
SuBLime previously released Tanaka's Yarichin Bitch-bu and Escape Journey manga in English. Yarichin Bitch-bu inspired an OVA adaptation in 2018. Tanaka's Happy of the End boys-love manga also inspired a live-action series in September 2024.
