Angel Flight ~ エンジェルフライト

 I love Seo In-guk so when I saw his drama "Death's Game" was available on Amazon, I logged in to add it to my watchlist.  It was there that I saw "Angel Flight" as a recommendation.  The Synopsis, according to Amazon:

"Ryoko Yonerkura stars in this series written by Ryota Kosawa about specialists who transport the deceased back home.  The company Angel Hearse is run by Nami Izawa (Ryoko Yonekura) and Kashiwagi (Kenichi Endo).  A drama thta portrays love between the deceased and the bereaved..."

I usually go and check Asianwiki.com to see who else is in the drama.  I haven't watched Japanese dramas regularly for about close to 10 years so there aren't many actors I recognize.  However, I have seen some of the younger ones I used to watch.  Of course, they are all mature adults now so every now and then I do recognize one! 

I couldn't find anything about this drama on Asianwiki.  I looked at some of the actors and this drama is not listed for any of them.  Weird.  

I still researched some more and found 2 things.

First, I actually recognize one of the actors.  Yuu Shirota.  I remember seeing him in for the first time in Samurai High School which I watched because Haruma Miura (RIP) was in it.  First time I saw Haruma Miura was in Crow's Zero 2.  I had no idea who he was but he was so good looking and I eventually figured out who he was.  It was a little difficult because I don't think he's properly credited for his role.  Crow's Zero 2 is not listed under dramas he's been in.  Anyway, after seeing him in Crow's Zero 2, I found him on Bloody Monday and then Samurai High School where I saw Yuu Shirota.  Glad to see he is in this new drama!

Second thing I found is that Airhearse Interational is a real company.  I accidentally stumbled upon their website when I was looking for more info on the drama.  There's a notice from March 17, 2023 "An Amazon Original Movie "Angel Flight" created under our support and supervision started to be on air".

So, I'm about to watch an episode  and then start Death's Game.
