Haven't read too much of this manga, but I enjoyed what I remember reading. More than anything I just hope it gets a solid adaptation since the recent track record for shoujo can be iffy on that front.

JC Staff worries me, with the manga being over I can see this being another Slideshow of the Rose King

Edit: Actually I completely missed that the director is Chiaki Kon, that gives me more hope. She did well in low budget environments like Higurashi and Crystal Season 3. Though in the end, if they try to compress all 15 volumes into two or god forbid one cour, nothing can save it

HanaKana and Satoshi Hino? Are we sure this isn't a late 2000's anime?

I know they've been in various shows together (and played brother and sister in Mayo Chiki) but I believe this will be the first time they've played love interests?

Well, they were both in Demon Slayer (even not on main character roles), so...

But yeah, that will be first time with love interests (and they're also played relatives in Magi, actually).

Yeah, but it seemed like the late 2000's was when they were really the go-to lead seiyuu (or Hanazawa was on her way to becoming that).
