Mitsubachi Miyuki is the creator of the boys-love manga It's Strictly Business, which is set to premiere a live-action television series on November 5, 2026, on BS Fuji. Yen Press publishes the English edition, with the first volume shipping on September 22, 2026.
Mitsubachi Miyuki's boys-love manga It's Strictly Business is expanding into live-action television. The series was announced on the manga's official X account in July, and the cast and debut date were confirmed in September. The live-action adaptation is scheduled to premiere on BS Fuji on November 5, with Sōta Uemura playing Ren Ashihara and Rio Takahashi playing Issei Kuji. Kozue Sasaki and Kana Urara direct, and Uiko Miura writes the script.
The live-action news coincides with the manga's first English print release. Yen Press publishes the English edition, and the first volume ships on September 22. The manga itself launched in Hakusensha's Hana to Yume in April 2021. The story follows college student Kiyo, who pretends to be gay to attract girls, only for his clubmate Issei to take the act seriously.
Two adaptation details anchor the project: the November 5 broadcast date and the casting of the two lead roles. The series marks the manga's move into a new medium, building on its print presence in Japan and its upcoming English-language availability.
