Comedy Romance ‘Tokyo Crush’ Wins Series Mania Best Project Award


‘This series is a rich blend of food, self-discovery and romance,’ says producer Jean-Félix Dealberto.

Carrying a €50,000 ($54,000) cash prize, the award was announced by Laurence Herszberg, Series Mania founder and general director, and the Co-Pro Pitching Sessions jury president, M.K. But upon landing in Japan, she realizes there’s a catch: she has to team up with the existing staff — including Toshiro, the fiercely talented (and annoyingly handsome) grandson of the founder. Featuring an ensemble of characters and conflicts that are ripe for great comedy: clash of cultures, tradition versus modernity, competition and will-they/won’t-they romance.
