From Studio Blue Productions comes the third BL series in this year's MBS Tunku drama shower. It's based on an award winning BL manga of the same name by Harada that was hailed as "a masterpiece in the history of Japanese manga" after it won a number of awards including first place in the 2021 BL Award Comic Category; being particularly praised for "capturing the hearts of a wide range of readers with its emotional storytelling". It stars Uesugi Shuhei as Yukinori (Kouki) and Nishimura Takuya as the angel Tenshi. Support comes from Kyoko Hasegawa as Kouki's mother Arisa, Kouki Tanaka as high-school student A-kun and Oideyasu Oda as Kouki's boss at the convenience store. The series has been directed by Yuuka Eda.
Synopsis: "There are a lot of things that Kouki doesn’t have – no hobbies, no friends, no lover, no stable job, and no will to live. So when a random tussle with a thug ends with him being stabbed, he thinks maybe this is finally his ticket out of this crappy life. But just as he’s on the verge of death, he sees a beautiful young angel with pure white wings... How is Kouki supposed to cope when less than a month later, he’s mysteriously healed, has astronomical bills to pay, and suddenly finds the same beautiful young angel has taken up residence in his house. He is confused by the angel's brazen attitude but decides to let him stay, due to the fact he has no memory and seemingly cannot fly. The strange cohabitation begins to reignite feelings in Kouki's heart as the two of them weave together the light and darkness of life, leading to an inevitable emotional last act!"
