Is Romance Worth the Risk? Secrets, Love and Betrayal Unveiled in ‘Chastity High’ Trailer

Is it a crime to fall in love? The freshly dropped trailer for Chastity Highoffers a glimpse into a world where a prestigious high school bans dating between students - and chaos ensues as they expose one another and rebel against the school rules.

Launching on August 29, Netflix's inaugural Japanese school drama is inspired by real-life incidents and incorporates extensive research into Generation Z's perspectives on romance and dating.

The series follows the story of students Ichika Arisawa and Ryogo Maki, portrayed by Ai Mikami (Yu Yu Hakusho, Undead Lovers) and Ryubi Miyase (Lovesick Ellie, Kururi Who's in Love with Me) respectively. As a "Love Keeper," Ichika uses her wits to secretly help other students caught violating the no-dating rule. She makes money in the process, helping her hardworking single mother pay for her tuition. Meanwhile, Ryogo, the son of a governor, seeks to escape his abusive father and sees Ichika's mission as a way to earn the money he needs. Eventually, their partnership evolves into a romance that defies the school's policies. When their secret is exposed, the strength of their resolve is tested. How will they navigate the fallout?

Joining Mikami and Miyase is a talented ensemble, including Rintaro Mizusawa, Yudai Toyoda, Shiori Akita, Rino Wauchi, and Kyoya Honda, who play the supporting characters and flesh out the harsh reality of this elite school.

The newly unveiled main art depicts Ichika and Ryogo captured in a moment fraught with tension, smartphones in hand, hinting at the underlying conflicts and emotional stakes driving the series.

Find out if they succeed in fighting for love and freedom in Chastity High, premiering globally on August 29, only on Netflix.
