It has been revealed that Mikami Ai, Nagase Masatoshi, Yoshine Kyoko, Mitsuishi Ken, Shiramoto Ayana, and Mitsushima Shinnosuke will appear in "Monthly Matsuzaka Tori," a special feature on three WOWOW films starring actor Matsuzaka, based on original ideas by Matsuzaka himself. The poster visuals and promotional videos for the three films have also been released.

"Monthly Matsuzaka Tori" is based on an original idea that Matsuzaka, who has a hobby of "imagining and expanding on imagining fictional films," has been working on for many years, and the three films are directed by Matsui Daigo, Okita Shuichi, and Saito Takumi. One film will be broadcast and streamed each month on WOWOW from October to December.

In "Yokosuka Detective Agency," directed by Matsui Daigo and featured in the October issue, Mikami plays Saya, a high school student who works part-time as an assistant to the detective Tatsuya (Matsuzaka), and Nagase plays Komoto, a visitor to the detective agency.

The story is set in a detective agency in Yokosuka. Tatsuya, a detective, complains about the many handyman-like jobs. However, Saya, a high school girl who works part-time as an assistant, feels that this level of work is fine for this agency. Meanwhile, a customer named Komoto comes to visit and asks them to find a certain man... The October issue will feature rare footage such as behind-the-scenes footage and interviews, as well as a special edition video of director Matsui Daigo.

In the November issue's feature "Dandy Boy," directed by Okita Shuichi, Yoshine plays Chiharu, the girlfriend of Yoshio (Matsuzaka), who aspires to be a manga artist, and Mitsuishi plays the boss of the Nozawa gang.

Yoshio, a student, is enjoying his college life with his girlfriend Chiharu. He makes up his mind to become a manga artist and spends his days drawing manga. One day, he meets a girl who is the daughter of the boss of the Nozawa gang. In order to save her from a conflict, Yoshio begins to fight like the hero of the superhero manga he draws... The November issue introduces a heartwarming look at the filming location, and a dashing dandy boy version of Okita Shuichi makes an appearance.

The December issue features director Saito Takumi's "I Can't Hear Anything," in which Shiramoto plays Satsuki, a human who lives with the AI Ho-1 (Matsuzaka), and Mitsushima plays Akira, an enemy of AI.

The year is 2065, and the human population has drastically decreased due to a nuclear energy accident. The AI Ho-1 lives with a human woman, Satsuki. Akira, who believes that humans are being controlled by AI and engages in destructive activities, sets Satsuki as his target. Seeing her in a pitiful state, Ho-1, who is supposed to have no emotions, corners Akira... The December issue introduces director Saito Takumi's directing on the set and his unique visual magic.

"Monthly Matsuzaka Tori" (3 episodes) will be broadcast and streamed on WOWOW Prime and WOWOW On Demand. The streaming times are as follows:

October 20th at 9pm = "Yokosuka Detective Agency" November 17th at 9pm = "Dandy Boy" December 15th at 9pm = "I Can't Hear Anything"
