My Brother’s Husband tells the story of Yaichi, a single father raising his daughter, and Mike Flanagan, a Canadian man who was married to Yaichi’s twin brother Ryoji. Mike travels unannounced to Japan after his husband’s recent passing. Yaichi must face his deceased twin’s sexuality and overcome his own preconceptions, and Mike learns what caused the brothers to drift apart.
The manga by Gengoroh Tagame will debut as a TV drama on NHK’s BS Premium in March 2018 and will star Ryuta Sato as Yaichi and former sumo wrestler Baruto Kaito as Mike.
i can’t believe i got to see a scene on tv where two conventionally attractive people were about to have a Typical TV Make Out session until the guy stopped and said “sorry, i don’t want sex. i never have.” like that feels amazing for so many ace kids who always felt like they were broken or weird for not behaving the way that they’ve seen on TV. im so so so happy
