WOWOW

Relationships take on many forms. Some can be fleeting, delicate things that only last a moment, while others are sure and steady and can last a lifetime. More often than not, relationships fall somewhere in between, but whatever the relationship, each one is as unique as the people in them.

Take the eight different couples in this story, for example. While each of them ends up sharing a night, how that night looks and what comes the morning after is entirely different. For the man reunited with his former high school classmate, the feelings he has harbored all these years give their time together a very specific meaning. Meanwhile, an evening shared by two individuals who regularly hook up for sex takes on an entirely different one.&nbsp;

No matter what their dynamic may be, each couple in this series has this in common: they each share a meal the morning after. The question is, where do things go between them, once they’ve finished their breakfast?&nbsp;

Adapted from the manga series of the same name by Kenichi Okuyama, “One Night Morning” is a 2022 Japanese romance drama directed by Kensaku Kakimoto.

One Night Morning

❤️ Love Actually ❤️

TV Asahi

For longer than he'd care to admit, Sota Aoki (Shunsuke Michieda) has had a crush on his classmate Mio Hashimoto (Riko Fukumoto). Sitting next to her in class every day, Aoki wishes he could find a way to tell her how he feels but something keeps holding him back. Despite being unable to confess his feelings, he’s at least able to talk to her about other, simpler things. He’s even occasionally borrowed school supplies from her, which is why he didn’t think twice about asking to borrow an eraser from her when he found himself needing one during class one day.

Little did Aoki know that borrowing one simple eraser would change his life forever. Noticing Hashimoto had written something on the eraser he’d borrowed, Aoki is devastated to find that she had written "Ida-kun". Crushed by the realization that she has absolutely no romantic interest in him, Aoki finds himself so flustered that he accidentally drops the eraser. Much to his horror, the very same Kousuke Ida (Ren Meguro), picks up the eraser and hands it back to Aoki. Noticing his name on the eraser, Ida suddenly sees Aoki in an entirely different light.

With Ida now convinced Aoki has a crush on him and Hashimoto wanting nothing more from him than their casual friendship, Aoki has no idea what to do next. Will he be able to clear up this misunderstanding with Ida, or will he find that fate has other plans?

Adapted from the manga of the same name written by Wataru Hinekure, “My Love Mix-Up!” is a 2021 romantic comedy drama directed by Shogo Kusano and Tadaaki Horai.

Growing up side by side, the five friends have been a part of each other’s lives for as long as they can remember. But now that they’re in high school, things between the friends are starting to change.

Having developed feelings for Motoaki, Miwa is mortified by the idea of confessing how she feels. Keeping her feelings to herself, Motoaki has no idea how she feels about him; as such, he continues to treat her as he always has: like a friend. Meanwhile, Aoi struggles to hide her own poisonous feelings towards Miwa. Constantly frustrated by her feelings of jealousy and inferiority, Aoi tries to put up a good front, but deep down, her feelings towards Miwa continue to fester. Even with Satoru by her side, Aoi can’t seem to shake her growing contempt.&nbsp;

Fully aware of the constantly fluctuating feelings of his friends, Ritsu decides to keep his distance from them all. But the bonds of friendship keep pulling him back. Will these life-long friends ever find a way to get back what they once had, or has fate decided it’s time for them to move on?
