Kabe Sa Dōjin Sakka no Nekoyashiki-kun wa Shōnin Yokkyū o Kojiraseteiru (壁サー同人作家の猫屋敷くんは承認欲求をこじらせている, transl. 'Popular Indie Creator Nekoyashiki is Making His Yearning for Approval Worse'), abbreviated as KabeKoji (壁こじ) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kazuki Minamoto [ja]. It has been serialized on Comic Ryū Web since February 2020. KabeKoji follows the relationship between a gay creator of doujinshi (self-published manga) and a male idol. A live-action television drama adaptation produced by Asahi Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) aired from October to December 2022.

Synopsis

Mamoru Nekoyashiki is doujinshi (self-published manga) creator who authors boys' love (male-male romance manga) under the pen name "Kōniku-sensei". Nekoyashiki is a highly popular creator at doujinshi conventions, and uses this popularity to fulfill his desire for external validation. At a convention he has a chance reunion with Kazama Issei, a childhood friend he once had a crush on, and who now performs as an idol under the stage name "Issay".

Notes

  1. "Kabe sa" in the series' title refers to "kabe circle" (壁サークル, kabe sākuru, "wall circle"), a slang term for doujinshi groups or "circles" that are popular enough to be placed along the wall of the convention venue for purposes of crowd management.
