Yoshino Michi is 32 years old. She's been married for five years, but hasn't had sex for the last two. It's not as if she doesn't get along with her husband, it's just that the sex part is lacking. It was a bit unexpected, but one night when she when drinking with her colleague, Niina Makoto, she wound up confessing that her marriage had turned sexless. And then, a shocked Niina responded "My marriage is sexless, too," and smiled with a lonely look in his eyes.

The story happens in the near future of Japan, where sexual activity is forbidden by law.

A bit similar love affair story with different story line in Hirugao both of the leads having an affair. In Kingyo Tsuma only the FL & FL husband plus other housewives who live in the same apartment complex having an affair.If you like love affairs genre this drama is a must watch. Iwata Takanori is too adorable.

Someone else actually pointed out the similarities… both deal with abuse, fish and passion (sex).

I really really enjoyed goldfish wives and I watched under your bed and liked it enough to watch it to the end without skipping. I’d give it a shot if you enjoyed the series. The movie (UYB) might not be everyone’s cup of tea but I really liked the ending.
