This series is based on the manga of the same name by Hanage no Mai, although the title was slightly anglicised to 'Takara and Amagi' when it was originally released for western audiences. The eponymous couple are played by Sato Arata (a member of the Idol group IMPACTors) as Takara, and Oriyama Nao (part of the 22 member Shounen Boy Ninja group) as Amagi. Support roles are provided by Komiya Rio as Tanaka and Suzuki Kosuke as Katori. The series has been adapted and directed by Yoshino Mamoru who previously helmed 'Mr Unlucky Has No Choice But To Kiss!'.
