Imagine you're a normal guy who suddenly realizes he’s a background character in a world that runs on the rules of a Boys' Love (BL) romance manga. This is the hilarious reality for the protagonist of *There's No Freaking Way I'll Be Your Lover! Unless...*. The main character, Mob, uses his vast knowledge of romantic tropes to desperately avoid getting caught in any of them. He watches as handsome men fall for each other in dramatic, cliché-filled situations, all while fighting to remain an unnoticed observer.
This clever meta-comedy, which aired on Tokyo MX, is a witty parody of the very genre it portrays. The short series has ended, but sign up for a reminder just in case it returns.
