The WOWOW satellite television channel announced on Saturday that Natsuya Semikawa’s Isekai Izakaya “Nobu” light novel series is getting a live-action series adaptation.
The series will air on the WOWOW Prime service starting in May.
Ryōhei Ōtani stars in the series as the shopkeeper and chef of Nobu, and Rena Takeda co-stars as the waitress Shinobu.
The novels center on a bar called “Nobu” — located in Kyoto, Japan, but with a door that is connected to the bar in another world.
