## What critics say

Viewers found the miniseries uncomfortable and thinly characterized, with a controlling relationship dynamic that is hard to root for, though the lead pairing stood out.

## Synopsis

My Personal Weatherman (2023) is a Japanese miniseries created by Taino Nikke for MBS, adapted from a manga. It follows Mizuki Segasaki (Kouhei Higuchi), an amiable, fresh-faced television weatherman who presents a cheerful public image while privately living with Yo Tanada (Atsuki Mashiko), an erotic manga artist who must obey his every word. The engine of the story is the hidden domestic arrangement between the two men, with their attraction tangled up in control, submission, and misunderstanding, while classmates and a friend named Manju (Sayuri Matsumura) and Atsuya Matsudaira (Atomu Mizuishi) orbit the household. The eight episodes, each around twenty-five minutes, are a single continuing story rather than a case of the week, and the miniseries sits within the Japanese boys love tradition. Set in contemporary Japan, it is a domestic drama shot in quiet apartment interiors and daily routines. The tone is intimate and uneasy, with angst and sunny facade contrasting a home that grows increasingly unsettling. Viewers who enjoy Given and Ookami to Koushinryou will recognize its focus on cohabiting pairs and emotionally fraught romance. The series is hard to recommend for its unhealthy dynamic, and it ends without resolving the central relationship.
