The official Instagram account for the live-action film and series adaptation of Modomu Akagawara’s Anitomo (My Brother’s Friend) manga revealed stills from the film last week featuring Jun Fukuyama’s character, an original character named Haginosuke Tachibana.
The film and drama both star Ryūsei Yokohama as Sōta, and Risaki Matsukaze as Mai.
The character often gives Sōta advice on romance.
Haginosuke is the manager of the Happy Dogs dog cafe where Sota’s younger sister Aki works part time.
