Listening to BL dramas since late 2004, I’ve gone through numerous seiyuus and dramas – from light, comic, highschool genres to dark, angsty, yakuza stories. Found that some seiyuu are suited to certain characters, with some best at karami scenes, angst and those whose performance or those who simply have a certain something to their voices that are emotionally stimulating.
Having a preference for serious, angsty adult stories I have to say that…
Konishi Katsuyuki x Nojima Kenji
…shine when it comes to these genre.
Beginning with Nejireta Edge (their first BL work together as the main pair) …the two delivered an outstanding performance, injecting just the right emotion and feel to their characters. As a bonus, their karami scenes are wonderfully done.
(cf. Narita Ken – you are not supposed to be louder and *bleeper* than your uke.)
So, if one is looking for something that’ll get the waterworks going, dramas with these two as the main will definitely have you making sure that the kleenex box is within reach.
Other Konitan x NojiKen works:

Yogoto Mitsu wa Shitatarite
