LOOK: ‘Some Love Begins With Mistaken Identity’ and ‘Me, Him, and You’ Set for TV Release Starting November 27

Two Japanese BL shorts are making their TV debut this November!

On November 20, TV Tokyo announced the upcoming broadcasts of ‘Some Love Begins With Mistaken Identity’ and ‘Me, Him, and You’ due to popular demand. Originally available on the geo-restricted streaming platform BUMP, these shorts will be re-edited into two-episode formats for a refined viewing experience. Fans are now left wondering if international streaming platforms will acquire the rights for global audiences.

  • Some Love Begins With Mistaken Identity

This mistaken-identity romance stars Takuma Usa as Kai, a kind-hearted but clumsy man burdened with debt and recently evicted. A lifeline comes from his twin brother Riku, who’s out of the country on business. Riku offers a deal: “Stay at my place, and I’ll pay off all your debts. But in return…” Entering his brother’s home, Kai is shocked when a mysterious man, Chiaki (Ryutaro Imai), bursts in, hugs him, and kisses him. Chiaki, as it turns out, is Riku’s boyfriend. Riku asks Kai to impersonate him and break up with Chiaki. This sets off a whirlwind story of mistaken identity and unexpected emotions.

 

  • Me, Him, and You


Aspiring chef Takumi (Iijima Hiroki) faces homelessness after his workplace shuts down. While job hunting, he encounters his former crush, photographer Ryoji (Higashi Keisuke), at a coffee shop. Though Ryoji doesn’t remember him, Takumi is haunted by Ryoji’s life-altering words: “How do you want to live?” Ryoji and his model roommate Daiya (Higashi Keisuke) invite Takumi to move in. As they share a home, Takumi navigates his feelings for Ryoji, Ryoji’s laid-back attitude toward love, and Daiya’s carefree lifestyle. What future lies ahead for this trio?

As excitement builds for the re-edited TV versions, international fans eagerly await news of potential global releases. Stay tuned to BLtai for updates on these shorts and their availability outside Japan!
