Ya Boy Kongming!
Synopsis
The story
Fate and reincarnation deliver brilliant military strategist, Kongming, from warring, ancient China to Japan’s modern party hot spot in Shibuya City, Tokyo. After a lifetime of battles and military skirmishes, Kongming wished with his last breath to be reborn in a world of peace and prosperity. It’s nearly two millennia later and he’s finding his way in a very different world than that of his past life. When he meets Eiko, an amateur musician with big dreams, the unlikely duo strikes up an even unlikelier friendship. Eiko has street smarts to help Kongming navigate this strange new world, and Kongming will use his strategic mind to help Eiko achieve stardom! An advanced online screening of the first episode was held on March 31, 2022, but the weekly TV release began on April 5, 2022.

"No matter what may come, no matter how difficult the road. There always a person who will support you."

The comedic, infectious musical wackiness the show provides is pure fun.
