“Fuma no Kojiro” drama slated for October

More details have been revealed about the recently-announced drama series based on Masami Kurumada’s ninja action manga “Fuma no Kojiro.” Wires and CG will be used for the action scenes.

20-year-old actor Ryota Murai has taken the lead role, accompanied by 19 other young “ikemen” actors, including Takuji Kawakubo. The cast was selected from approximately 300 candidates.

The series begins airing in October on independent UHF stations in several areas across Japan: Tokyo MX, tvk (Kanagawa), SUN-TV (Hyogo), and others. The broadcast time has not yet been announced.

A musical featuring the same cast is planned for next March.
