An official website and Twitter account have been opened with the announcement that Takashi Sano's Kimi ga Kemono ni Naru Mae ni (Before You Turn Into a Beast) manga is getting a TV drama adaptation that will premiere on April 5.
Hiromitsu Kitayama has been cast as the protagonist Hajime Kanzaki.
Hajime Kanzaki is a 31-year-old proprietor of a funeral parlor. One night, he coincidentally meets an old childhood friend, the now-famous 26-year-old actress Kotone Kidō, and they end up spending the night together. When they part, Kotone leaves him with the cryptic remark: "You were the only one who could have stopped me."
Later that night, a terrorist gas attack occurs at a train station in the city, claiming 666 lives. Through footage of the attack, Hajime recognizes the gas-masked perpetrator as Kotone when she takes off her mask and dies as well. Hajime then becomes embroiled in the investigation surrounding the tragedy.
