Mocomichi, Aibu in drama version of Watase's "Zettai Kareshi"

Tokyograph News · 02-21-2008, 08:27 PM

Fuji TV is adapting Yuu Watase's shojo manga "Zettai Kareshi" (also known as "Absolute Boyfriend") as a live-action drama series, starring Mocomichi Hayami and Saki Aibu. The six-volume manga was originally serialized in Shojo Comic and has sold more than 1.6 million books.

Aibu plays a temp worker in search of a boyfriend, and she ends up in possession of a "robot" known as Night Tenjo (Hayami), who is programmed to be the perfect boyfriend. However, this creates a love triangle with a distinguished young man at Aibu's company (played by Hiro Mizushima) who has feelings for her.

The series will air on Tuesdays at 9:00pm, starting on April 8.

I'm not familiar with the manga, so I have no idea what to expect.

Has anyone seen Regatta? I'm curious if Mokomichi and Aibu were any good in that drama.
