The final episode of the drama " I became the main role of a BL drama, Part 2," starring actors Aran Abe and Nichika Akutsu , began streaming on the video streaming service TELASA on July 25th at noon. The second behind-the-scenes behind-the-scenes video, " I became the main role of a BL drama, Part 2," will be available from August 1st at noon.
The drama is a live-action adaptation of the popular BL (Boys Love) manga by Suzurigai. It depicts the love story between popular handsome actor Akato (Abe) and former popular child actor Aoyagi (Akutsu), who is now a lackluster actor.
In the previous episode, Akafuji went to Izu with Yamabuki Wakaba (Oshida Gaku), a movie director, to start filming the final episode of the drama he stars in. Aoyagi is anxious that the distance between them might become even closer, and at the suggestion of his old friend and "big brother" actor Haibara Ryunosuke (Furuya Ryotoshi), he secretly watches the filming. Unaware of the circumstances behind the scenes, Akafuji learns that Aoyagi and Haibara are in Izu and starts tailing them, but accidentally jumps out in front of Aoyagi... and so a "love square" is depicted.
In the final episode, Akafuji and Aoyagi meet on a sleepover date in Izu, where they reveal the feelings and true feelings they have been suppressing because they love each other. At the same time, the decision has been made to produce a sequel to the BL drama that once brought the two together, "Koisuru Ore to Osananajimi," and filming has already begun. What will be the outcome of Akafuji and Aoyagi's "pure love"? The story unfolds.
The second making-of video shows the behind-the-scenes of the Izu location shoot. In addition to behind-the-scenes footage, it also includes footage of Abe and Akutsu wrapping up filming. As with the first video, it also includes a surprise interview with the two cast members, revealing the true faces of Furuya and Oshida, who joined the cast in the sequel.
In addition, the collaboration cafe, which was held at the "EX GARDEN CAFE" inside the TV Asahi headquarters (Minato-ku, Tokyo) until June, has been decided to be opened at the "Tree Village" in Yokohama, Osaka, and Hakata from August.
Customers who order from the collaboration menu will receive a limited edition novelty item (not for sale), and there will be an exhibition themed on the birthday pajama party in the play, standees signed by the two main actors, and a rotating exhibition of illustrations by the original author Suzurigai. Details of the collaboration cafes can be found on the official websites and social media of each store.
