High School Kageki: Otoko-gumi (SP) (J-Drama) (2012)

High school student Yonehara Hiroki (Daito Shunsuke) attends a college preparatory school, but is half-hearted in everything and has no dreams. He sees a girl called Hayase Madoka (Sakuraba Nanami) on the bus and falls in love with her at first sight. Then one day, he learns that Madoka is a big fan of Takarazuka musical stars. Out of a sheer desire to get close to her, Hiroki plans to perform at the school cultural festival and befriend her by taking a shot at an all-male version of her favourite Takarazuka musical. And so, he ends up heading the “high school theatrical company” with his schoolmates, who have come together just for the fun of it. They start getting coaching from the ballet teacher, Midorikawa Hana (Takahashi Yumiko). However, Hana does not appear to be serious about doing it. Furthermore, his schoolmates are unsynchronised. Before long, strong bonds form as they realise the importance of carrying it through as well as the difficulty of not giving up, and set their sights on a successful performance.
