The cast is also singing the ending theme song, "Best Friends."
The comedy manga revolves around the girls at the elite Fujisaki Girls' Middle School, which has tsundere (initially aloof and abrasive, but later kind-hearted), meganekko (eyeglasses-wearing girl), and other kinds of students.
The cast are:

Inori Minase (Occult Academy) as Suzune "Suzu" Tanahashi, the airheaded student council secretary
Ayane Sakura (Vividred Operation) as Yuiko "Eno" Enomoto, the student council vice-president known for her soft, luxurious hair
Yō Taichi (My Little Monster) as Sayori "Sayo" Mizushima, the student council treasurer who loves money
Masahiko Ohta (YuruYuri, Mitsudomoe) is directin at the studio Doga Kobo (YuruYuri, GJ Club). Takashi Aoshima (YuruYuri, Mitsudomoe) is in charge of the series scripts, and Chiaki Nakajima (YuruYuri,) is designing the characters.
Miyahara launched the manga in Houbunsha's Manga Home magazine in 2006, and it later ran in other Houbunsha magazines before ending its main run in 2010.
The anime will premiere on July 4.
