posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
The official website for the television anime adaptation of Haruka Kawachi's Natsuyuki Rendezvous manga began streaming the second promotional video for the series on Thursday.
Kou Matsuo (Kure-nai, Red Garden) is directing the series, and Junichirō Taniguchi (Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Yondemasu yo, Azazel-san) is serving as both character designer and chief animation director. Dogakobo is animating the series.
Kawachi's Natsuyuki Rendezvous manga ran in Shodensha's josei manga magazine Feel Young from its July 2009 issue to its January 2012 issue. The romantic drama collected in four volumes tells the story of a love triangle between Hazuki, a young man who works part time at a flower store, Rokka, the widow who owns the store, and the ghost of Shimao, Rokka's deceased husband. Hazuki will be voiced by Yūichi Nakamura, Rokka will be played by Sayaka Ōhara, and Shimao will be played by Jun Fukuyama.
Aimer (No. 6) will perform the show's ending theme song "Anata ni Deawanakereba ~Natsuyuki Fuyuhana~." Yūya Matsushita (Black Butler II, Durarara!!) will perform the opening theme song.
The series will premiere on Fuji TV's late-night programming block Noitamina on July 5.
