HONEKO AKABANE'S BODYGUARDS LIVE-ACTION FILM CASTS SNOW MAN MEMBER RAUL; REVEALS
AUGUST 2 PREMIERE

posted on 2024-03-04 01:24 EST by Joanna Cayanan
Raul stars as protagonist Arakuni Ibuki

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Shochiku started streaming a special video for the live-action film adaptation
of Masamitsu Nigatsu's Honeko Akabane's Bodyguards (Akabane Honeko no Bodyguard)
manga on Sunday, announcing the film's August 2 premiere. The video also reveals
that Raul (Snow Man idol group member) will play the role of protagonist Arakuni
Ibuki.





Junichi Ishikawa (Princess Jellyfish, Fragile, Innai Keisatsu live-action
series) is directing the movie, and Hiroyuki Yatsu is is writing the script.



© Masamitsu Nigatsu, Kodansha
Kodansha's K MANGA service is publishing the manga in English, and it describes
the story:

> They have only one goal – to kill Honeko Akabane! One day, Arakuni Ibuki
> learns that his childhood friend, Honeko Akabane, is being targeted by
> assassins! Both of them are in Class 3-4 at Sosoji High School, and Ibuki is
> ordered to protect Akabane for one year. His goal is to ensure that she
> graduates safely, but he must do so without her realizing it. And so begins
> his secret life as a bodyguard at school! However, there seems to be more
> secrets within "Class 3-4"…?! This is the start of a new and exciting action
> school comedy!!

Nigatsu debuted the manga in Weekly Shōnen Magazine in September 2022. Kodansha
published the manga's seventh compiled book volume on February 16.
