The voice comic adaptation of the buzzworthy work 'Ai no Irezumi' (by Akairo Mash), which was released in 2025 and nominated for the '17th BL Awards 2026 Deep Category,' has been confirmed.
The voice cast for this production features Hiromu Mineta as Aisuke, a tattoo artist trapped by his past love, and Takuma Terashima as Naoki Morimoto, a straight salaryman who wants to change his mundane life.
Naoki, tired of his 'boring' daily routine, feels this sentiment even more strongly after being dumped by his fiancée for being 'boring.' One day, he happens to pass by a tattoo studio and meets the tattoo artist Aisuke. Naoki becomes strongly drawn to his mysterious charm and the 'traces of past love' engraved on his chest...?
--It is a bittersweet and sweet BL story that begins when these two contrasting individuals meet.
