posted on by Alex Mateo
The anime will premiere in January 2027.
Ayumu Murase and Sayumi Suzushiro will star as Yūki Uehara and Niina Miyamoto, respectively:
Seven Seas Entertainment licensed the manga, and it describes the story:
Dweeby high schooler Yūki Uehara has created the perfect romantic comedy heroine—she's bashful, airheaded, and completely chaste. When an editor at Uehara's dream publisher coldly dismisses his manga story as trite and lacking realism, it sends Uehara into a spiral of despair that pushes him into the path of his bubbly, gorgeous classmate, Niina Miyamoto—an aspiring manga artist herself! Having gotten similar feedback on her own manga, Miyamoto proposes she and Uehara engage in a fake relationship, since neither of them have any romantic experience. But Miyamoto is far from the perfect heroine Uehara's concocted, and he certainly isn't the cocky hero from her story either. Can their wacky relationship turn their manga dreams into reality, or will it lead to even more comic disasters?
Shunsuke Ishikawa (BLUE LOCK THE MOVIE -EPISODE NAGI-) is directing the anime at ROLL2, and Deko Akao (Arakawa Under the Bridge, Komi Can't Communicate) is supervising and writing the series scripts. Hiromi Nakagawa (WATATEN!: an Angel Flew Down to Me, Saint Cecilia and Pastor Lawrence) is designing the characters, and Infinite is producing.
The additional staff includes:
The manga launched in Hakusensha's Young Animal magazine in 2023, and Hakusensha published the eighth compiled book volume on September 29. Seven Seas Entertainment published the fifth volume in English on July 28.
