Mars Gets New Live-Action TV Series
The cover of the January 2016 issue of Kodansha's Bessatsu Friend magazine (cover pictured at right) announced on Saturday that Fuyumi Soryo's Mars shōjo manga is getting a new live-action TV series. The Mars ~Tada, Kimi wo Aishiteru! (Mars
But, I Love You) series will premiere on January 24 and it will air on NTV on Saturdays from 12:55 a.m. to 1:25 a.m.
The series will star Kis-My-Ft2 member Taisuke Fujigaya (Nobunaga Concerto's Inuchiyo Maeda, Kamen Teacher's Gota Araki) as Rei Kashino and Masataka Kubota (Death Note TV series' Light) as Masao Kirishima.
