A Sweet Romance Between Two Long Lost Friends!
The world often feels much smaller than it is, especially when it brings people together in the most surprising ways.
In the Japanese BL Stay By My Side After the Rain, fate intervenes with the softest touch, reuniting two childhood friends in a quiet, nostalgic café on a rainy day in Tokyo. What starts as a simple catch-up over coffee becomes something far more tender when memories resurface and long-buried feelings slip out into the open.
Adapted from the web manga Ameagari no Bokura ni Tsuite by Rakuta Shoko, the series stars Ikeda Masashi as Kanade Shinichiro, a quiet office worker who’s tucked his sexuality, and his past, away in a box he’s no longer willing to open. That is, until he runs into Mashiro Kosuke (Hori Natsuki), the best friend he’s been trying not to remember.
