What happens

Ossan's Love (Japanese: おっさんずラブ, Hepburn: Ossan zu Rabu; lit. 'Middle Aged Man's Love') is a Japanese television drama produced by TV Asahi. The series follows Soichi Haruta, a romantically unsuccessful office worker whose male boss and roommate confess their romantic feelings for him. Noted as one of the first Japanese television dramas in the boys' love (male-male romance) genre, Ossan's Love was initially released as a single-episode television special in 2016, which was adapted into a seven-episode television series in 2018. A feature film sequel to the television series, Ossan's Love: Love or Dead, was released in 2019; a second season of the television series titled Ossan's Love: In the Sky aired that same year. A new season titled Ossan's Love Returns aired on January 5, 2024, with Tanaka, Yoshida, and Hayashi reprising their roles. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
