  • Koisenu Futari

    1. Koisenu Futari

    Japanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes

    9.0

    Canon: Takahashi (Male Lead) as Aroace

    "I believe they exist. People who don't fall in love."

    "People say 'you like being alone, don't you?' This troubles me because it's not true."

    'It's just that why, at time like this, don't things end with recognition that 'such people exist' or 'such things also happen'?"

    Canon: Kodama (Female Lead) as Aroace

    "I thought I was lacking something as a human. That's why the words 'aromantic asexual', your words, saved me."

    "I recently came to realize that I might be an aromantic asexual. I've never understood the appeal of love or kissing or sex."

    "I didn't know what to say when they asked who I liked. So I thought that, for the moment, I would just listen and laugh along. I did that all through elementary school, junior high, high school, university, and even after it too. 'You'll understand one day.' I had really believed in those words."

    "I mean this is the first time that I am able to be myself without feeling gloomy at all. When I learned that there was a person like me, I was so so happy!"

    "There are people who try to connect everything with love. I don't even want to be connected."

    Canon: Various guest appearances at an aro/ace convention

    Japanese Drama - 2020, 9 episodes

    9.5

    Canon: Hara Tsumugi (Female Lead) as Aroace

    "I think I might be asexual. It means I don't have romantic feelings for others... So far, I've never felt those feelings, and I don't think I will do so in the future."

    “I am sick and tired of hearing you say ‘do you have a boyfriend?’ or ‘you’ll make a good wife.’ I can’t live up to the ideal life you wish for me.”

    4. Konya Sukiyaki Dayo

    Japanese Drama - 2023, 12 episodes

    Canon: Asano Tomoko (Female Lead) as Aromantic

    "I got reminded of my school days. There was a lot of talk about love at that age, right? I couldn't keep up with it, and I was always worried that I was lacking something. They don't understand even when I say I'm not interested in love."

    Canon: Takasugi Ume (Female Lead) as Aroace

    "The idea of being attractive to a three-dimensional man... just thinking about it makes my skin crawl."

    "In other words, regardless of gender, love itself is impossible for me. Yes, it isn't for me."

    "So, I've pretty much made up my mind to keep living alone, but I wanted to test the possibility that I might like women at least once, you know."

    Headcanon: Matsuda Ken (Male Lead) as Aromantic

    "There's something powerful and amazing about those who get moved by love and affection."

    "A place for myself, huh? Marriage isn't part of it. That I'm sure of at least."

    Headcanon: Han Sa Rang (Female Lead) as Aroace.

    “In the past, I couldn't say ‘I don’t want to date someone’ very confidently. Because I felt something was lacking or was short of what everyone had. Now I feel different.”
