posted on by Alex Mateo
The official Twitter account for writer Kо̄ Nogatsu and illustrator Sabamizore's Seiyū Radio no Ura Omote (The Two Sides of Voice Actor Radio) light novel series is getting a television anime. Miku Itō will play Yasumi Utatane/Yumiko Satō, and Moe Toyota will play Yūhi Yūgure/Chika Watanabe. Both also voiced the characters in a promotional video for the light novel series in 2020.
Sabamizore also shared an illustration to commemorate the announcement:
The story follows Yūhi and Yasumi, who are both voice actresses that attend the same high school and are in the same class. They host a radio program together. However, Yasumi is really Yumiko the gyaru (gal) in real life, while Yūhi is actually Chika the quiet girl. They are diametrically opposed in appearance and personality, and they get into fights when they are not on air.
Nogatsu and Sabamizore launched the novel series in February 2020. The seventh volume shipped on June 10, and the eighth volume will ship on January 7. Umemi Makimoto launched a manga adaptation in Kadokawa's Dengeki Maoh magazine in March 2020, and ended it in July 2021. The third and final compiled book volume shipped in September 2021.
