Tamon's B-Side (Japanese: 多聞くん今どっち!?, Hepburn: Tamon-kun Ima Dotchi!?; lit.'Which Tamon Am I Seeing Now?') is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Yuki Shiwasu. It was originally a one-shot published in Hakusensha's shōjo manga magazine Hana to Yume in August 2021, before being serialized in the same magazine from October of the same year. An anime television series adaptation produced by J.C.Staff premiered in January 2026.

Plot

Utage Kinoshita is an excitable high school student who supports Tamon Fukuhara, a wildly popular member of the idol group F/ACE. To Utage, Tamon is a flawless, radiant idol who gives her the motivation to get through daily life. Utage works as a part-time housekeeper, and is assigned a new client when a coworker gets sick. To her surprise, this new client is Tamon, and she quickly discovers that behind his perfect public image, he is deeply insecure, pessimistic, gloomy, and has no friends. As Utage becomes involved in Tamon's private life, she works to support him through his self-doubt and fear of failing his fans, while struggling to reconcile the contrast between his idol persona and his true self.

Characters

Utage Kinoshita (木下 うたげ, Kinoshita Utage)
Voiced by: Maika Sasaki[2] (voice drama), Saori Hayami[3] (anime)
A 17-year-old[a] high-school girl and an avid fan of Tamon, Utage works part-time as a housekeeper for her oshikatsu. She was initially assigned to Tamon's house to cover the absence of her co-worker before officially hired as his housekeeper. She would do anything to keep Tamon retaining his idol job; this includes scolding him every time Tamon says any negative remarks about himself or maintaining her distance with Tamon as a fan. One of the running gags is that she frequently drops her uchiwa and somebody else ends up picking it up for her.
Hayami commented that Utage is expressive and sometimes out of control, but deep down she has a big, straightforward heart, which makes her an adorable character.[4]
Tamon Fukuhara (福原 多聞, Fukuhara Tamon)
Voiced by: Takuya Eguchi[2] (voice drama), Kakeru Hatano[3] (anime)
The 18-year-old titular character, Tamon is the "wild boy" member of idol group F/ACE who portrays a confident and bold persona in public. In truth he's gloomy, negative, and has low self-esteem with his public image being a character forced upon him by his agency. Despite this, his feelings towards being an idol and his fans are genuine. Utage discovers his true personality after being sent to work for him, and decides to stick to his side to support him. She refers this side of Tamon as "Gloomyhara" (ジメ原, Jimehara) and his idol persona as "Hottiehara" (イケ原, Ikehara). Tamon grows to value Utage and starts to become conscious of Utage's life—sometimes becoming possessive of her in a side known as "Darkhara" (ヤミ原, Yamihara). One of the running gags is when he becomes gloomy, mushrooms would grow around him; this literally turns his room muggy. Tamon has an older brother, Daiki, who was his inspiration to pursue an idol career.

F/ACE

Ori Sakaguchi (坂口 桜利, Sakaguchi Ōri)
Voiced by: Toshiki Masuda[2] (voice drama), Shōya Chiba[3] (anime)
Ori is the "prince" member who portrays a close relationship with Tamon. He is 17 years old. Born from family of entertainers, Ori was previously a child actor and has many long-time fans. He is popular for his refined and well-mannered demeanor, but his true personality is that of a proud, arrogant, and violent man. He sees through Tamon's timidity and looks down on him, though both of them eventually become closer. Hostile towards Utage at first, he eventually falls in love with her and has been trying to win her over.
Keito Tachibana (橘 敬人, Tachibana Keito)
Voiced by: Tasuku Hatanaka[3]
The leader and later center of F/ACE, he is 21 years old[b]. To the public, Keito is friendly, gentle, and is excellent at cooking; he has his own cooking show. Behind this persona is a ruthless miser who only sees his fans as a source of income. He wears glasses in private. In order to make money, he is strict against scandals, and is wary of Utage at first, though eventually comes to accept her as Tamon's emotional support. His intense obsession with money stems from his desire to send his five younger siblings to college and to make things easier for his parents.
Natsuki Ishibashi (石橋 ナツキ, Ishibashi Natsuki)
Voiced by: Kōhei Amasaki[3]
The "cute" member of F/ACE. He is 20 years old. Fashionable and multi-talented, he produces his own cosmetics and composes his own music. His true personality is that of a lazy downer who likes cigarettes, alcohol, and pachinko. Being from Kansai, he speaks in Kansai dialect in private. As a teenager, he indirectly caused injury to his then-girlfriend Asuka, which forced her to withdraw from an important martial arts match. Despite his growing success as an idol, he feels guilty and is unable to fully devote himself to his activities.
Rintarō Kai (甲斐 倫太郎, Kai Rintarō)
Voiced by: Ryūho Nagaoka[3]
The rapper of F/ACE. He is 19 years old. Rintaro is the tallest and physically the strongest member of the group, and is active in sports and entertainment programs and as a model. He is quiet, cool, and mysterious, which is his charm. His true personality is that of a talkative otaku who can't help but talk nonstop about his favorite anime, "Sushi Musume" and his favorite character Kanpyo Roll. He became an idol because, like anime, he can evoke "emotions and stories that wouldn't happen in normal life." Unlike the other members, he doesn't consciously create an idol persona; he just doesn't talk much when he's nervous.

Others

Wataru Fujita (藤田 渉, Fujita Wataru)
Voiced by: Masaaki Mizunaka[5]
The manager of F/ACE. He's under a constant state of stress having to manage the members of F/ACE who all have personality quirks that are difficult to work with. He is aware that Utage's actions in support of Tamon go outside her job for doing household chores or even what a normal idol fan would be allowed, and approves of it. He acknowledges Utage has had a positive effect on Tamon, making him come out of his shell, which by proxy makes his own managerial job easier. He is 32 years old.
Izumi Shiraishi (白石 泉, Shiraishi Izumi)
Voiced by: Takako Honda[5]
The producer of F/ACE whom Tamon is scared of due to her strict personality. She does this to raise F/ACE's popularity.

Utage is assigned to clean Tamon's apartment and finds out that he actually has a gloomy personality in contrast to his bold persona in public. As Utage cleans the apartment, she tells Tamon how big of a fan she is, while also cooking meals for him. A few days later, Utage returns to the apartment and accidentally falls on top of Tamon as F/ACE's manager Wataru Fujita walks in, causing Utage to run away dejected. The next day, a news report comes out that frames Utage as an anonymous stalker, making Utage reluctant to work for him again, especially with Toda discharged from the hospital and ready to be his housekeeper as planned. Utage attends the next F/ACE concert as just another fan, and during an intermission Utage is taken backstage by Tamon.

Sometime later, Utage and Tamon go shopping for new clothes together with Tamon wearing a paper bag on his head. Afterwards, the two have a drink at a cafe and Utage's high school friends show up not knowing that she is with Tamon, causing him to run out and drag Utage away. A few days later, Tamon attempts to make a rolled omelet and fails that has him thinking about going on hiatus until Utage tells him that not everybody will go well on the first try.

Utage throws Ouri out, only for him to break the door down and give Tamon a harsh scolding. As Utage leaves, Ouri warns her to not tell anybody about his true personality, and Utage vows to never see him again. Days later, summer break begins, and F/ACE announces a competition to choose a center. Utage and her friends watch the first episode together at her house, and Tamon struggles in the first round of competitions.

On the night of the festival, Tamon wears a wig and a mask, while Ouri follows the two in secret. After spending some time enjoying the festivities, Tamon goes off and Ouri approaches Utage asking if Tamon is her boyfriend, which she denies. When Tamon returns, he tells Ouri that Utage is his girlfriend and drags her away. While the two are alone, Utage and Tamon agree to perceive each other as just ordinary people as the two enjoy the rest of the festival as such. The night concludes with the fireworks show as Tamon surprises Utage by calling her Uta-chan instead of Kinoshita.
