The drama series "Lion's Lair" (TBS, Friday 10pm) starring actor Yagira Yuya. The synopsis and stills from episode 5, which will air on November 8th, have been released.
Amane (Ozaki Takumi) succeeds in secretly taking a photo of Aio (Ono Machiko) working at a cabaret club in Shinjuku. Upon hearing the news, Kaede (Sakurai Yuki) publishes an exclusive article announcing that Aio is alive.
When X (Okayama Amane) finds out that Aio is alive, he tells her to run away immediately.
The next morning, Kouto (Yagira), who wants to know more about Aio's situation, contacts Kaede. Takada (Kakizawa Hayato) of the Yamanashi Prefectural Police also relies on the article and visits the cabaret club in Shinjuku to pursue Aio.
Meanwhile, Mijito (Bando Ryuta) receives an illustration job offer from a publisher in Tokyo, and goes on a business trip to Tokyo with Funaki (Hirai Masaaki) for an overnight stay.
One night, Koto, Lion (Sato Sora) and Koto spend the night together. Koto receives a message on his smartphone from Ai saying she wants to see him. Not knowing Ai's circumstances, Koto is unsure whether to let her meet Lion, but seeing Lion wanting to see his mother, he decides to go to the designated location with Mijito and Lion to meet her.
This is a human suspense story in which Koto and Mijito meet a mysterious boy who calls himself "Lion" and become embroiled in an incident. The script is an entirely original work by Tokuo Koji, who has worked on "My Housekeeper Nagisa-san" (TBS), and Ichinohe Yoshino, who is making her drama debut.
