| Arashi's Ninomiya Kazunari and Sakurai Sho star in the TBS drama Yamada Taro Monogatari! Based on Ai Morinaga's popular manga, Yamada Taro Monogatari revolves around the hilarious misadventures of a poor, but princely high school student. The story was previously adapted into a Taiwanese drama in 2001 with F4's Vic Chou in the starring role, and now it finally comes to Japanese television. Lead Ninomiya Kazunari has been gaining a lot of attention for his acting in recent years, and he brings his down-to-earth charm to this fun and heartwarming series. Other than the Arashi boys, the drama also features SOPHIA vocalist Matsuoka Mitsuru as Taro's father and Kikuchi Momoko, taking her first drama role in 13 years, as the mother.
A student at the elite Ichinomiya High School, Yamada Taro (Ninomiya Kazunari) is handsome, smart, and athletic, and seems to effortlessly exude a princely air. Naturally, everyone assumes that he must come from a wealthy, privileged background. In reality, Taro is the oldest son in a very poor family. He lives in a small, rundown house with six siblings and a flighty mother (Kikuchi Momoko) who is completely clueless about money. Everyday, Taro has to work hard and stretch his mind to earn money to support the family, leading to many comedic situations. Luckily, his wealthy friend Takuya (Sakurai Sho) is always willing to help him out.
