The story of “A Man Who Defies the World of BL” revolves around the main character Mob, who realizes he’s living in the world of BL manga and constantly finds himself vividly dodging a series of situations that are likely to develop into "romance" with handsome men, for a comical and nonsensical BL manga. Volume 4 of the manga (out August 2023) is made into a drama! Full of pure love and laughter, this series is streamed exclusively on Lemino under the title “A Man Who Defies the World of BL 2024.”

The protagonist, Mob, will be played by the talented Atsuhiro Inukai, who won the Grand Prix at the 25th Junon Super Boy Contest, gained popularity after starring in Kamen Rider Build, dramas like “Kei×Yaku: Dangerous Partners,” and as a regular on variety shows like “Poka Poka.”The cast lineup features the best talents from the current realm of film, dramas, and theater, as Mob gets pulled in by characters like his younger brother Ayame, played by Yutaro, who appeared in the “Kaguya-sama” movies, university student Kikuchi, who has a crush on Mob and is played by Asahi Ito, who gained popularity after appearing in the TBS drama “Worst to First: A Teen Baseball Miracle,” and Ayame’s boyfriend Tojo played by Akihisa Shiono, who gained attention for his role in “Dear Radiance,” his first taiga drama. BL-lover and manga artist Mayama, who holds Mob’s fate in his hands (?!) is played by Da-iCE member Hayate Wada, while the intense Hatano, who randomly appears before Mob, is played by Ryo Sekoguchi, who is loved by many because of his role as Stacy in “Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger” and is active in both film and theater.

A new poster design featuring this top-notch lineup of handsome actors has been revealed! A total of 30 colorful characters interact with the main character Mob. A trailer video full of behind-the-scenes footage has also been released!
