The wildly popular anime "I'm Being Threatened by the No. 1 Man I Want to Hold" began airing on terrestrial television in the fall of 2018! Set in the entertainment world, the story depicts the love story between Takato Saijo and Junta Azumaya.

Let's start by reviewing the story!
The protagonist, Takato Saijo, has been in the entertainment industry since he was a child actor, making him an elite actor with 20 years of experience. He's skilled in dramas, stage plays, and commercials. His talent is unwavering, and he was voted "No. 1 Man I Want to Hold" for five consecutive years. However, in his sixth year, he was snatched from the top spot by a different actor, dropping him from the top spot. The winner was Junta Azumaya, a rookie actor with only three years of experience.
...But his hostility was obvious
After losing his number one spot as the most desirable man, Takato openly expressed his hostility towards Junta. Meanwhile, it was announced that he would be co-starring in a drama with Junta. Junta will play the lead role, with Takato in a supporting role. The fact that the number one and number two most desirable men would be starring together generated a lot of buzz, but Takato was unhappy that his lead role had been taken away from him. Meanwhile, Junta's bright smile warmed to him, and he warmed to him. Then, at a drinking party after filming the drama, Takato, who has a low tolerance for alcohol, passed out and had to be nursed back to his feet by Junta.
Let Me Hold You, Takato

One day, Junta, who had always been so attached to Takato, suddenly became distant. Worried that Junta has grown tired of him, Takato confronts him and finds out that Junta has a cold and has been avoiding him on purpose to avoid infecting him. After the misunderstanding is cleared up, the two enjoy playing with honey. As an anime broadcast on terrestrial television, they cannot depict such direct scenes, but this episode still felt like they were pushing the limits of what is allowed on terrestrial television. Since "Dakaichi" cannot depict love scenes directly, it creates an atmosphere with occasional descriptions and breathing, which has been well received by fans of the original work.

This is undoubtedly one of Dakaichi's most memorable scenes! The scene where the two play in uniforms is a must-see. One day, Junta begins to wish he could meet Takato in high school, and he comes up with a plan. The plan was to borrow a uniform from Narimiya, who attends Takato's alma mater, and rent a school studio where Takato would wear the uniform. Naturally, Takato was very reluctant, but Junta forced him to wear it. Junta's reaction escalated even further, to the point where he even asked to be called "sensei" (teacher)! Naturally, Takato was also reluctant, but Junta begged him, saying "Just once!", so he reluctantly called him that once. However, after doing so, he ended up being made to call him that many times, based on the theory (?) that if you call him that once, it's the same no matter how many times you call him! This episode really highlighted Takato's fickleness and tendency to be easily swayed, but Takato was really cute in his uniform!

These are the scenes from "Dakaichi" that will make you think, "I really don't mind being hugged!" Because it's a terrestrial TV anime, there are limitations on the amount of sex scenes, so fans of the original work initially wondered, "How are they going to adapt this into an anime...?" But Dakaichi makes up for it with his stunning sex appeal! It has been decided that Dakaichi will be adapted into a stage play in 2019, and the momentum is unstoppable! We are looking forward to seeing how it develops in the future.
