A strict personnel manager at an IT company named Onizuka (Ren Osugi) finds a helpless stray kitten and caring for it changes his outlook on life.

Recently, Cygames streamed a promotional video for the live-action drama adaptation for Yū Tsunamino’s Futari Monologue manga. It will be streamed on AbemaTV’s AbemaGOLD channel starting in October. The series will star Haruka Fukuhara (Cure Custard from Kirakira ☆ Precure a la Mode) as Hinata Omimura and Miki Yanagi (Sela/Zyuoh Shark from Dobutsu Sentai Zyuohger) as Mikage Mikuriya. Furthermore, Kenji Kurata (Wicked City) is helming the series and writing the script.

Underneath the veneer of orderly lives, frozen smiles and awkward averted glances, SWEET LITTLE LIES is a cold-as-steel clinical study of a couple. Married for three years, the couple keeps up the apparently tender rituals of newlyweds, but all is not as bright and beautiful as it would seem. Miki Nakatani, “the best Japanese actress of her generation” (Mark Schilling, Japan Times) plays the emotionally and sexually starved wife in Hitoshi Yazaki’s anti-melodramatic chronicle of the disintegration of a marriage. Even the most seasoned viewers will be struck by the menacing calm of Yazaki’s compositions, and his unveiling of lives made from lies.
