The drama adaptation of Keigo Higashino’s novel Ryusei no Kizuna is set to air this fall with Johnny’s boys Kazunari Ninomya (Letters From Iwo Jima), Erika Toda (MisaMisa from Death Note) and Nishikido Ryo (Attention Please!) taking the roles of siblings.
(Is anyone else frightened by the control of Johnny’s Entertainment in Japan?) The story is about three orphan siblings, two boys (the older played by Kazunari Ninomiya) and one girl (played by Erika Toda), that become a team of Robin Hood wannabes that steal money from the rich. Their parents were murdered when they were younger and their formative years were filled with deception and lies so they have sworn to avenge the death of their parents. One day the two brothers have found the murderers, but they find that the people responsible might be much closer to home….
This drama is starting to interest me. I really like Ninomiya as an actor and I think Nishikido is adorable so I won’t mind watching him (unless he sucks). Looking forward to this drama to start airing this October on Fridays at 10pm on TBS (Tokyo Broadcasting Station).
