The official website for the live-action series of Ogeretsu Tanaka's Happy of the End boys-love manga started streaming a new trailer, which reveals and previews the series' theme song "2Colors feat.JESSE(RIZE/The BONEZ)" by THE SPELLBOUND, on Tuesday. The theme song is co-written by THE SPELLBOUND and Jesse of RIZE/The BONEZ.

KUMA releases the manga in English, and it describes the story:
Dazed and confused, Chihiro awakes on a pile of garbage with memories of wedding still fresh in his mind. When out of the blue a young man named Keito appears before him. Instantly, he then recalls the night he spent with this person. The booze! The hotel! The punch to his face!Chihiro may not have a place to call home currently and Keito may not be a good person by any means, but maybe the two of them could be happy together.
Tanaka launched the manga in Takeshobo's Qpa magazine in January 2020, and ended the manga with its third compiled book volume in October 2023.
SuBLime previously released Tanaka's Yarichin Bitch-bu and Escape Journey manga in English. Yarichin Bitch-bu inspired an OVA adaptation in 2018.
