My Personal Weatherman

My Personal Weatherman is written and illustrated by Nikke Taino. It is serialized in the manga website Comic CMoa since November 21, 2020 by NTT Solmare under the Ficus label.[5] The chapters were later released in a bound volume by Libre under the BBC Deluxe imprint.[6] NTT Solmare also released the series in English digitally through MangaPlaza.[1]

In 2023, Taino stated in an interview with Comic CMoa that the concept of the story came from the idea that eroticism can be found in situations outside of sexual activity, which is shown in how Yoh feels aroused at the thought of sunny days.[3] Taino also said because the manga was originally drawn with the intention of it being performed at an event by voice actors, they decided to focus on having implicit sexual depictions instead of more explicit scenes.[3] The story was temporarily given the title Outside of Sex (えっちの外側, Ecchi no Sotogawa) prior to finalization.[3] Taino's favorite scene in My Personal Weatherman is when Segasaki takes care of Yoh after the latter loses his job in chapter 3, such as when Segasaki helps Yoh drink through mouth-to-mouth transfer.[3]

A live-action television drama adaptation of My Personal Weatherman was announced in July 2023.[1][2][8] It was broadcast on MBS from August 11, 2023,[lower-alpha 1] to October 13, 2023, as part of their Drama Shower, a programming block created by MBS and Tunku (a label of Kadokawa Corporation specializing in live-action boys' love television dramas).[2] In addition to MBS, the series was also broadcast on TV Kanagawa, Gunma TV, Tochigi TV, TV Saitama, and Chiba TV.[1] The series is directed by Ayaka Katō, Shinju Funabiki, and Emi Yasumura.[1] Natsuki Takahashi and Shinju Funabiki are in charge of writing the script.[1] Ryō Watanabe and Shifumi Kōchi are in charge of music composition.[1] The series consists of 8 episodes, with one of them an original episode written by the creator, Nikke Taino.[2]

The series stars Kouhei Higuchi as Mizuki Segasaki and Genic member Atsuki Mashiko as Yoh Tanada.[1] Additional cast members include Sayuri Matsumura as Kanami Matsudai and Atomu Mizuishi as Atsuya Matsudai, an original character made for the television drama who serves as Kanami's husband.[4] The opening theme song is "Träumerei" by Gang Parade,[4] and the ending theme song is "Nostalgia" by Absolute Area.

The role of Segasaki was Higuchi's second starring role after Avataro Sentai Donbrothers.[9] He expressed that the role of Segasaki was challenging for him because the character was a "good-looking guy" and that he was worried about conveying the character's charms to fans of the manga.[9] To draw out Segasaki's "sexiness" and "coolness", Higuchi stated that he was careful about using his voice in a way that would show sex appeal.[9][10] In preparation for his role, he studied about weather through reference books and learning from a weather forecaster.[9] Higuchi and Mashiko also stated that several intimate scenes were created "on the spot" during filming.[10]
