It has been revealed that Hora, Mimi ga Mieteruyo! (Japanese title) will get an anime adaptation! It is based on a webcomic which runs on a major Chinese comic website and has over 600 million views. The series will start airing on 3 October 2018 and stars Ayumu Murase and Yuma Uchida.

Author Tracey publishes the manga on ManManManga. It soon became popular thanks to its ‘A New Sensation Every Day’-System. The manga tells comical stories of Myou, a boy with cat ears, and a lonely manga artist called Daisuu whose works don’t sell well. The anime will be produced by monofilmo, Chiaki Sugano* will direct.

This time we have received comments from the main cast. Murase Ayumu, who will voice Myou, said, ‘Most of the times I voice slightly evil characters, so voicing Myou is like cleansing my heart. [laugh] Myou is an honest and pure character, so I try to voice him with a pure heart. Since the story itself is so heartwarming I hope that it will also make the viewers feel good.’

And Uchida, who voices Daisuu, said, ‘When I saw Daisuu first I thought “He’s an adult. ‘I wonder if I’ll be able to sound so understanding” but unexpectedly his funny side comes out a lot and he is similar to me in many ways, so maybe I was able to portray him very well. [laugh] I put all my heart into showing the kindness that Daisuu carries, so I would be happy if it conveys to the viewers.’

The theme song ‘MiMiMi☆Puwappu’ will be sung by the 18-year-old new singer Amasato Tsukino*, who also left a comment. ‘The song picks up on the themes of the anime, “Cat” and “Ears”, so the song is full of cuteness! I hope many people will listen to the song!’

The series will start airing on 3 October 2018, 22:24 (JST) in Japan.
