Shintaro (SixTONES) - TV Drama “NanbaMG5” 🐕

[krautundkimchi]

Found this new Japanese drama Nanba MG5 while searching for more news for the new High and Low The Worst movie. It's insane fun, though only one episode is out. But it got me hook, line and sinker! If you are a fan of the High and Low and Crow series, you will like this.

The Nanba family is just so extra!

It also has Morikawa Aoi as FL Fujita Miyuki, soon becoming one of my favourite Asian actress - criminally underrated in my opinion.

Kamio Fuju - you probably know him from High and Low, here in a supporting role - as surly Godai Naoki.

And...

the scene stealer Mamiya Shotaro , as ML Nanba Tsuyoshi. I have only seen him in Tokyo Revengers as Kisaki, where all he did was smile at the camera in a twisted way. Watching him in Nanba was enough to convince me to watch more of his works. He is the youngest son of a(n) (in)famous delinquent family who secretly goes to an ordinary (whatever that means in the manga world) school and craves a normal (whatever that means in the manga world) youth.

Honorary mention - Nanba family's youngest member - Matsu. I won't reveal more and spoil the fun. Just go watch

It's an ongoing drama with new episodes dropping every Wednesday.

Nanba MG5: the only on air drama I finished this year. Pity it's over!

What better way to end my posts on this series than by sharing the homage to Matsu by the broship.
