When Mugi Aihara (Yuna Taira) read, in her favorite magazine, that the heirs to four of the biggest corporations in Japan were on a public quest to find their one true love, she could hardly believe what she was reading. When she realized these four gorgeous princes were searching for their destined princess via a new reality show, she dropped everything she was doing and immediately started filling out a contestant application.

A few days later, Mugi got the shock of her life when she received a text informing her that among the 700,000 applicants vying for the chance to participate in “Marry the Prince”, she had been selected as one of the three lucky contestants. Beside herself with joy, she happily accepted the invitation, along with two other high school students, Fumino Ono (Takeda Rena) and Yu Shibayama (Okamoto Natsumi). Together the three girls excitedly begin filming, only to find that life as a reality show contestant isn’t exactly what they’d imagined it would be.

Wealthy and entitled, Riku Nikaido (Isomura Hayato), Taiga Saionji (Hiroki Iijima), Terunoshin Minai (Yu Inaba), and Tatsunari Date (Yamamoto Ryosuke) were far from the dashing princes of fairy tales. Caught up in the drama of their own lives, the four princes have more fun teasing the girls than they do wooing them as none of them really believe they’ll actually find true love. But each of the participants soon learns that fate can be a funny thing and that love has a way of finding you when you least expect it.

A lighthearted romantic romp, “Noble Boys” is a 2019 romantic comedy drama directed by Taisuke Kawamura, Mai Sakai, and Tohru Otsuka.

Prince Charming Team 💍👑

Having been bullied for most of her life, high school student Ninon Okamura (Marie Iitoyo) has never once felt comfortable around others. An incredibly introverted individual, Ninon struggles to communicate with anyone other than her family and her pet parrot, who offers her a fair amount of emotional support by remaining perched on her shoulder day in and day out. Ridiculed for her bird and her quiet nature, Ninon might very well have spent the entirety of her high school career under attack, had not her classmate and neighbor, Yuiji Kira (Taishi Nakagawa), unexpectedly intervened.

Easily the most handsome and popular boy in school, Yuiji spent his high school days harassing other students and dating any girl who happened to catch his eye. But beneath his cool exterior, Yuiji was desperately lonely. Suffering from a serious heart disease, Yuiji has only a year left to live but he refuses to tell anyone of his grim fate. When Ninon’s parents tell her Yuiji’s secret by mistake, she takes it upon herself to befriend her dying neighbor.&nbsp;

Promising to stay by his side until the end, Ninon and Yuiji’s newfound friendship begins to grow, and with it comes a meaning and happiness neither of them has ever known before.&nbsp;

Passionate Neighbors 

As students of dentistry at the local university, Hide (Masaki Suda), Navi (Ryusei Yokohama), Kuni (Ryo Narita), and Soh (Yosuke Sugino) were probably the least likely group of guys to come to mind, when anyone mentioned music. Just another group of average university students, living their average university lives, these four friends spent their days much the same as anyone else their age. Or did they?

While the world saw Hide, Navi, Kuni, and Soh as nothing more than a group of dental school students, the reality of their lives was quite different. Forming a band several years ago, the four friends had met with unexpected success after the independent release of their first album. Picked up by a major record label not long after, the band soon found its music topping the charts. But being successful doesn’t automatically make life easy. Struggling to find balance between family and friends, school and work, the four friends now find themselves wondering where things will go from here.&nbsp;

Working hard on their latest track, “Kiseki”, the band finds themselves forced to make some difficult decisions. Will the struggles they’re facing now turn out to be worth it in the end?&nbsp;
