Ao to Midori (2026 Japanese Drama) - Season 1 (Episode 2 Added)

Season 1 (10 episodes, airing Oct 5–Dec 7, 2026 on BS Asahi) opens with Ao and Midori’s high-school friendship and the first cracks in their mutual misunderstanding. Early episodes establish the “baby” nickname, Midori’s guarded affection, and the tension of unspoken feelings. Mid-season arcs deepen the personal stakes as Ao and Midori navigate adulthood, careers, and the slow unraveling of their silence; later installments push toward the couple’s decision to break free from “normalcy” and embrace what truly makes them happy.
