Synopsis
Continues the story of Dakaichi: I'm Being Harassed By the Sexiest Man of the Year
For five consecutive years, actor Takato Saijou has been crowned "Sexiest Man of the Year." With two decades of experience and a well-earned confidence in his above-average looks, he sees the title as a fitting reflection of his professional achievements. Then newcomer Junta Azumaya—who debuted only three years prior—snatches the award away. Takato's initial shock morphs into jealousy and outright hostility. Even on the set of their shared new drama, Junta seems to have leapfrogged over him, stealing the lead role that Takato would normally occupy and constantly getting under his skin. What makes it worse is the cheerful smile and kind words Junta pairs with every irritating action. This simmering resentment finally boils over when Junta catches Takato in a drunken, vulnerable state. Worried about his public reputation, Takato confronts his junior co-star with angry, harsh words—only for Junta to seize the opportunity. Now Junta holds video footage of the famous actor picking a fight with a fellow cast member, giving him the perfect leverage for blackmail. When Takato asks what price his rival demands for silence, he is stunned to learn that Junta's motivation has nothing to do with career advancement. Instead, Junta's terms can only be met behind closed doors—in the bedroom.
In this installment
Takato Saijou and Junta Azumaya, recognized as the sexiest men in Japan, shine together as co-stars. Their upcoming joint project involves a play centered on a flamenco battle, yet Junta retains the upper hand due to his heritage, leaving Takato, a complete novice, at a disadvantage. Driven by an unyielding urge to surpass Junta, Takato journeys to southern Spain to absorb the passion required for this demanding art form. Amidst the welcoming atmosphere of Spanish streets, Takato encounters Ceres, a charming and experienced flamenco dancer whom he hopes to learn from. However, his studies are disrupted by Junta’s arrival to visit his grandfather’s hometown. Consequently, Takato must not only strive to match Junta’s abilities but also navigate interactions with Junta’s family and contend with Antonio, an unforeseen competitor for Junta’s affection.
