Live-Action My Tiny Senpai Series Reveals More of Its Cast

The official website for the live-action series of Saisou's My Tiny Senpai (Uchi no Kaisha no Chiisai Sempai no Hanashi or Story of a Small Senior in My Company) manga announced more cast members for the series on Friday.

The new cast members include (clockwise from upper left in image above):

• Sōta Uemura as Yūsuke Yamagishi
• Tsubasa Takizawa as Takuma Shinozaki
• Kōsuke Suzuki as Chihiro Akina
• Mito Yukimi as Chinatsu Hayakawa
• Yua Shiraishi as Akari Kurusu
• Nozomi Hanayagi as Aiko Kubo
• Yua Ashihara as Yuri Itō
• Shigehiro Yamaguchi as Masao Yoshida

The series will premiere on January 15 on the channel's "Suiyō Drama 23" (Wed. Drama 11:00 p.m.) block. Model, gravure idol, and #2i2 idol group member Tōmi (seen below) is starring as Shiori Katase.

Masashi Komura (live-action Kariage-kun) and Hikaru Nishiguchi are serving as both writers and directors of the series, and BS Shochiku Tokyu and Lepro Entertainment are producing.

The office romantic comedy centers around the new employee Takuma Shinozaki and Shiori Katase — his short, big-breasted, charming superior at work who cares about her subordinates.

Saisou launched the manga on Takeshobo's Storia Dash web manga service in April 2020. Takeshobo will publish the manga's seventh compiled book volume on August 17.

The manga inspired a television anime that premiered in July 2023. Crunchyroll streamed the anime as it aired in Japan, and also streamed an English dub.
