Construction company employee Michi Yoshino (Nao) is married to a shy and reticent man who loves her, but avoids her whenever she tries to get intimate with him – to the extent that it’s been two years since they last had sex. One evening, feeling particularly neglected and frustrated, she sits outside drinking a can of beer when she bumps into her successful and popular boss Makoto Niina (Takanori Iwata). Like her, Makoto is also feeling neglected by his spouse: his wife is a successful fashion editor who never “has time” for intimacy. But could this heart-to-heart lead them to a dangerous romantic encounter… and the potential end of both their marriages? This 2023 Japanese drama series was based on a manga series by Haru Haruno and was directed by Hiroshi Nishitani.

The Forbidden Couple

WOWOW

It’s been a year since former top-chef Nobuyuki Yazawa (Ryohei Otani) and his partner, Shinobu Senke (Rena Takeda), opened their bar, Nobu, in a deserted alley in Kyoto. With the front entrance of the bar mysteriously connected to the world of Aiteria, a parallel universe reminiscent of medieval Europe, Nobuyuki and Shinobu have had to overcome several unexpected obstacles. But having successfully done so, the bar is thriving.

Drawn to Nobu for its delicious food and its renowned beer, Toriaezu Nama, people from all over Aiteria flock to the bar. But not all patrons of Nobu are reputable. Drawn by her love of alcohol and sweets, a woman by the name of Ingrid (Miki Mizuno) darkens the door of Nobu. With the appearance of a witch, Ingrid catches the eye of everyone she meets, which soon starts rumors flying. Catching wind of a witch at Nobu, Archbishop Rodrigo (Satoru Matsuo) springs into action, determined to bring her and her associates in before any can escape.

Having narrowly escaped trouble with the law last year, Nobuyuki and Shinobu aren’t ready for another showdown with powerful officials. But can they let a seemingly innocent woman be taken from their establishment without a fight?

Somewhere in Kyoto, on some out-of-the-way street not often frequented by visitors, there sits a bar by the name of Nobu. While most people would pass this bar without giving it a second thought, those familiar with the establishment know it possesses a rather strange secret. For the front entrance of Nobu is connected to an alternate world, a world known by its residents as Aiteria.

How Nobu and a world reminiscent of medieval Europe became connected is the secret of Nobuyuki Yazawa (Ryohei Otani). Once a chef at a successful high-end restaurant, Nobuyuki gave up that life to pursue a more peaceful existence. Now the owner of Nobu, Nobuyuki wants nothing more than to serve his customers the very best food and drink. Helping him manage the bar is Shinobu Senke (Rena Takeda), a pretty, brilliant young lady who certainly knows how to handle the bar’s lively, albeit sometimes unusual, patrons.

With customers from both Japan and Aiteria flocking to Nobu to enjoy its fine cuisine, the bar's business couldn’t be better. But with two worlds colliding at a single location, how long will this success last?

Based on the Japanese light novel series of the same name by Natsuya Semikawa, “Isekai Izakaya Nobu - Season 1” is a 2020 Japanese drama directed by Hiroshi Shinagawa.

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.
