Hikari no Naka

CM Blu-ray box has been announced to be released on Mar 24, 2021 and currently taking reservation!
https://shop.tv-tokyo.co.jp/detail?gcode=DBS103071
It will consist of 3-disc set (includes main story and spin-off eps) and it is subbed in English and Chinese (it's really rare, I hardly know any official Japanese drama DVD/Blu-ray is subbed in other language). It's so worth it! I need to check if they can ship overseas.
[Bonus video]
Making video (approx. 30 minutes) / Episode 1 PR collection (approx. 1 minute)
[Enclosed benefits]
Booklet (drawn by Yu Toyota Special edition)

Edit: It will also be available on Amazon Japan:

Note: Personally, I wouldn't normally pay so much money to buy DVD, but CM is an exception (well, I made a lot of exceptions for CM anyway). It has given me a lot of joy and happiness during this shitty times, it has become a precious baby to me. So if you can, please also support them :)

You can find the link to Vol 1 English in the Discussion Forum above. For the rest of volumes, you can purchase it on Amazon (information is also in the Discussion Forum).

It's not even a comment section anymore, it has become a live chat, announcement board, watch party, thesis paper, shopping directory, etc. LOL. This section has become the best source for all kinds of CM information, I suggest you to visit here often.

And Machida's IG followers reached 900K! Omedeto Machida-kun!

Thanks alot. OMG there are so many sequels/spin off versions!
To be honest, all the fighting scenes make me a bit dizzy @_@ I also didn't recognize most of the cast, except some of the Gekidan Exile members and Hayashi Kento.

Our prayer is with you and your family. Wishing you a speedy recovery and come back to enjoy CM!

That's correct.

His name is not under the Best Actor list, so we can put him under the Supporting Role. Just type out his name in kanji in the field.

Time to vote again! This one is for a bigger scale award, Annual TV Drama Award 2020 by TV LIFE. The competition is tough, against all prime-time dramas, including this year's most popular drama Hanzawa Naoki, but there is no harm in voting.
It's all in Japanese but Google translate helps a lot. There are several categories to vote, but for CM I only voted for these categories:
1. Drama (no. 137) 2. Best Actor (Akaso Eiji) 3. Best Supporting Actor (Machida Keita) 4. Drama theme song (ED by Deep Squad).
Please note that only one vote per person is allowed, so please avoid multiple voting since they may not be counted. And just in case, I also use Jpn VPN when casting the vote. Happy voting!

Actually it's more obvious in manga, he's much more competitive and can be rather selfish to get what he wants, especially when concerning Adachi. So the drama version is a nicer version of Kurosawa, but given chance he might show more of his true personalities lol.

Anyone has seen High & Low? Tried to watch several episodes, but don't really understand what's going on. Too many characters, and like 90% of the scenes are fighting and beating the crap out of each other ;_; things I would do just to get a glimpse of Machida-kun...
But it seems to be quite popular since it has so many sequels/spin-off. And is this some kind of LDH members reunion drama since so many of their members are in this show?

Be prepared to buy their DVD/Blu-ray, I'm quite sure they will release one. TV Tokyo's other recently finished dramas already announced their DVD/Blu-ray release. It's quite pricey though..@_@

I hope this is just a bad joke among fans though..

That's my question too hahaha

LOL that would make a perfect scenario! XD

You mean their personality?
Kurosawa: Perfect on the outside, but he's actually quite possessive, jealous and can be rather cold. But extremely faithful and caring to people he cares about.
Adachi: Boring on the outside, but very kind and warm in the inside. Understand people's feelings and insecurities, since he himself is an insecure person.

There is a rumor going on Twitter that CM is going to be remake in Thailand but with university setting?? OMG, please don't!! and the story is about 30yo virgin, how are you going to do it with college student?
If this is a joke, it's not even funny @_@

OL is my fave Japanese BL drama (before CM, of course). I agree that Haruta can sometimes be annoying and over the top, and I also didn't get it why he accepts his boss' advances, but I still found it hilarious. Regardless all the flaws, we are really grateful for OL for being the pioneer for JPN BL drama in a lot of things. It is the first BL that reached Japanese's mainstream audience and succeeded in "normalizing" the same-sex relationship depiction. It also casted professional actors and the quality of production is quite high. Thanks to OL, now we can have better quality BLs such as Kinou nani tabeta and CM.

Still not working, couldn't find CM on their page :( do you have to have WeTV Thai membership to access it?

I agree with you, and it makes me sad already that we have less than 2 weeks until the show ends :( this is the first fandom that I follow closely and actively and I'm glad that I find a lovely community here. Everyone is sharing the info, fun stuffs, watch party, interesting analysis, it feels like a second home for me. Everything will come to an end, but CM will always be a precious memory for all of us :)
