Live-action “Kurosagi” – The Black Swindler Revealed New Characters
The official website for the live-action series of the “Kurosagi” – (The Black Swindler) manga by Takeshi Natsuhara and Kuromaru has revealed new characters:
Tsurara is a female college student who wants to become a prosecutor. The main character Kurosaki once helped her father when he was tricked. However, Tsurara did not forgive Kurosaki for the way he set up a trap for the one who cheated on her father – by deceiving the scammer.
Eiichiro Funakoshi will play Tsurara’s father Tatsuki Yoshikawa, a man who always thinks of his family first, but was the victim of a scam in the past.
As previously announced, Sho Hirano, member of the idol group King & Prince will play the main character Koshiro Kurosaki.
Kenta Tanaka, Yasuharu Ishii and Shunichi Hirano will direct the series, with a script by Eriko Shinozaki.
The series is expected to air in October 2022.
Six years ago, Kurosaki’s family was destroyed when a “shirosagi” (a “white swindler”, who focuses on defrauding others) swindled Kurosaki’s father of their family’s life savings. As a result, his father killed Kurosaki’s mother and sister before committing suicide. Since then, Kurosaki has devoted himself to becoming a “kurosagi” (“black swindler”), who swindles other swindlers, as a means of revenge.
As a “kurosagi”, Kurosaki’s acts have helped innocent victims of swindling schemes get their money back. However, he is frequently met with opposition by a stubborn grad student, who seeks to become a prosecutor.
