posted on by Alex Mateo
The staff for the short anime of Nimo Gotō's Everyday Host four-panel manga announced on Thursday that it has cast Hidenobu Kiuchi as Tarō Okonomi.
The anime premiered on the TV Tokyo channel on April 4. The series will air for two cours (quarters of the year).
The anime stars:
- Hiro Shimono as Kōichi
- Taku Yashiro as Hajime
- Tasuku Hatanaka as Ryōichi
- Nobuhiko Okamoto as Senichi
Rarecho (Aggressive Retsuko, Ani ni Tsukeru Kusuri wa Nai!) writes and directs the series at his Fanworks studio.
The gag comedy about everyday life follows ex-businessman Sekiguchi, who changes careers to become a host at "Club One" after getting sick. The colorful cast of co-workers includes a younger-brother type host who actually has over 20 years of experience in the field, a former idol, a social-game obsessed rough host, and others.
Gotō launched the manga as a series of four-panel comics on their personal site, Nico Nico, and pixiv comics in July 2020. Kadokawa published the fourth and fifth compiled book volume digitally under the Asuka Comics DX label on December 24.
