The series has Kozue Sasaki and Takashi Haga directing it from the scripts by Yo Saito. It’s scheduled for a June 24th, 2026, debut through U-NEXT and a week later on TV Tokyo.
The Japanese cast includes:
- Tomoya Oku as Wataru Toda
- Kazuto Mokuda as Chiharu Saeki
Check out the official site and Twitter.
Plot Concept: Chiharu Saeki and Wataru Toda are two high school students who share a common hobby: They love to watch movies. After they meet, they become fast friends, until one day, when Chiharu confesses his love for Wataru. Wataru says that Chiharu’s confession doesn’t bother him, and the boys continue throughout their summer, going to pilgrimages to see film spots from their favorite movies. But the more time he spends with Chiharu, Wataru realizes he may not only be as unaffected by Chiharu’s confession as he claimed to be, but those feels may also be mutual.
