Synopsis/故事大纲:

Kita Yoshio, a very unlucky man who has chosen his close friend’s death anniversary as his suicide date, which is 11 days away. The number 11 has been quite significant throughout his life: he was born on November 11th; his roll call number at school was #11; and 11 years ago, he and his wife, Mizuho, went through a divorce. Debt-laden and feeling unneeded to the world, he sells off all his belongings and plans for his death date. However, on the 1st day, he meets Yashiro Heita as well as numerous other characters who will cause him to experience the most eventful 11 days of his life.

《明天的喜多善男》是由岛田雅彦的小说《自由死刑》所改编，由饭岛让治出任编剧。主人公喜多善男，45岁，被妻子所抛弃的二手男人，欠了一屁股债。本想在11天后挚友的忌日上结束自己的生命，在这时开始了我们的故事，也开始了他自己根本想都不敢想的波澜万丈的人生。

　　　正如原著小说名字那样，主人公喜多善男选择“自由死刑”在11天后结束自己的生命，把大限之日定在一个星期后的星期五，决定快乐地享受剩下的11 天。在他下定决心要11天后自杀的日子里，在同一辆计程车里邂逅了一个叫做矢代平太的男子。善男把自己的决定告诉了平太，平太于是和他约定想办法让他度过最完美的11天。于是善男遭遇了各种以前从来没遇到过的美妙事情，比如奢侈的酒池肉林、和以前分手的女朋友重逢、和“小姐”们嬉戏、和崇拜的偶像共度。

　　但实际上平太只是表面上帮善男，背地里却聘请了杀手要杀善男，借此夺取他的保险金。于是善男自由选择死亡的希望似乎不太可能实现。
