LAS VEGAS—Award-winning Asian male destination PeterFever presents its latest parody production, a takeoff of streaming hit Midnight Diner. PeterFever’s new Midnight Boner is a Tokyo-lensed “blend of food, diner culture and scorching man-to-man sex courtesy of a cast of Japan’s most popular male erotic performers,” a studio spokesperson said.
The limited series begins its biweekly run this week on PeterFever.
“The story of Midnight Boner revolves around random, sometimes clandestine meetups at a late-night hangout. Deep in the backstreets of Tokyo, a secret yakuza-run diner opens only after midnight. But it doesn't serve just food—it serves release, revelation, and raw desire,” a plot synopsis reads.
“... a steamy, stylized parody of Midnight Diner where each late-night customer brings a new erotic story to the table. Behind the noodle counter stands Chef Daddy ... a stoic ex-yakuza with a mysterious past and a talent for satisfying more than just hunger,” the synopsis continues.
“In this intimate hideaway, men from all walks of life—personal trainers, yakuza bosses, politicians, salary men, YouTubers and even long-lost lovers—come seeking connection, escape, or simply the thrill of the forbidden. Every episode is a self-contained journey of lust and longing, often outrageous, sometimes tender, and always honest.
“As dishes are served and secrets are shared, each man must confront what brought him to the diner—and what he's really hungry for. With daily specials like Beefcake Udon and Tempura and Tattoo Thursdays, Midnight Boner is equal parts erotic escapism, queer empowerment, and late-night comfort fantasy. It’s a warm, wet and weird love letter to the men who dare to want and aren't afraid to escape into the night to unleash their carnal desires,” the synopsis concludes.
Among the series’ cast, Japan’s top gay star Hiroya stands out as “Chef Daddy,” the diner’s proprietor. Other noted models featured in the production include Daniel Zhang, Novo, Koki, Zen, Ramu, Haru, Reach, Reitaro, Yuki, Yoshi Kawasaki, Kenji and Taki.
Commented zBUCKz CEO Danny Zeeman, "Some people say food and porn don't mix. Midnight Boner is the antithesis to that—it's proof that ramen and romance, udon and underwear, can simmer in the same pot. And believe me, the men in Midnight Boner are served piping hot."
Director Guy Criss concured, saying, “After Danny Z turned me onto it, I became a huge fan of Midnight Diner. When the opportunity arose to do a take-off of this show, I was more than ready to go. Shooting on location in Japan was unparalleled and the models were goddamned amazing. The cast was open to the story and each model added his own personal touches. Collaborative, flexible experiences make working for PeterFever something I always look forward to, and this is among the best series we've created.”
Zeeman also noted that PeterFever has a “50 percent off first month” membership promo for the rest of September.
