Ever wanted to see your favorite voice actors act as a couple onscreen? The popular male voice actors Yūki Kaji and Mamoru Miyano guest starred as a side couple in episodes 3 and 4 of TBS' Kimi no Hana ni Naru (Becoming Your Flower) live-action drama.

Miyano plays the group's manager Kenji Soegi. In episode 3, Soegi calls for his boyfriend Toshi, a public servant whose hobby is cleaning and tidying up, to help clean the dorm before a TV crew visits for an interview.
The third episode aired on November 1, and the fourth episode aired on Tuesday.
