posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
The official website for the television anime of Hiroyuki's Girlfriend, Girlfriend (Kanojo mo Kanojo) manga began streaming the full promotional video for the anime on Wednesday. The video reveals and previews the anime's opening theme song "Fuzaketenai ze" (I'm Not Joking) by Necry Talkie, and also reveals the ending theme song "Pinky Hook" by Momo Asakura.
The anime will premiere on July 2 at 2:25 a.m. (effectively, July 3) on the Animeism programming block on the MBS and TBS channels. The anime will then run later that night on BS-TBS. The anime will also premiere on AT-X on July 7. Crunchyroll will stream the anime as it airs in Japan.
The anime stars Junya Enoki as Naoya Mukai, Ayane Sakura as Saki Saki, Azumi Waki as Nagisa Minase, Ayana Taketatsu as Rika Hoshizaki, and Rie Takahashi as Shino Kiryū.
Kodansha Comics began releasing the manga digitally starting on April 6, and it describes the manga:
Naoya just got a girlfriend, the gorgeous Saki-chan, and though their intensities often pit them against each other like ice and fire, they're totally, uncontrollably in love with each other. He vows never to cheat...when out of the blue he receives another confession! Nagisa's cute, sweet, and she's made him lunch to boot! He knows he can't cheat, but he can't let a cutie like this get away...so he does the logical(?) thing: Asks Saki for permission to date them both! The confidence! The arrogance! The very gall! No matter the outcome, Naoya's future will be lively!
Satoshi Kuwabara (The Quintessential Quintuplets) is directing the anime at Tezuka Productions. Keiichirō Ōchi (The Quintessential Quintuplets) is in charge of series scripts. Akiko Toyoda (Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Dark Side of Dimensions) is designing the characters and serving as chief animation director. Keiichirō Ōchi, Kazuhiko Inukai, and Mayumi Morita are writing the scripts. Miki Sakurai and Tatsuhiko Saiki are composing the music
Hiroyuki launched the manga in Kodansha's Weekly Shōnen Magazine in March 2020.
Hiroyuki's Aho Girl, The Comic Artist and His Assistants, and Doujin Work manga have all inspired television anime. Media Blasters released the Doujin Work manga, and Kodansha Comics released the Aho Girl manga in English.
