Gorilla no Kami Kara Kago Sareta Reijō wa Ōritsu Kishidan de Kawaiigareru TV Anime's Teaser Promo Video Streamed

Kadokawa revealed a teaser promotional video on Friday for the television anime of Mika Kamisu's manga adaptation of Shirohi's Gorilla no Kami Kara Kago Sareta Reijō wa Ōritsu Kishidan de Kawaigareru (The Lady Blessed by the Gorilla God Is Adored by the Royal Knights) novel series.

The anime will star (Note: Some character name Romanizations are not confirmed):

• Kanna Nakamura as Sofia Reeler
• Takeo Ōtsuka as Louis Scarrel
• Reiji Kawashima as Isaac Sean
• Takuma Nagatsuka as Eddie Pheles

Fumitoshi Oizaki (Ontama!, Deaimon: Recipe for Happiness) is directing the anime at Kachigarasu (in collaboration with diomedéa), and Hitomi Amamiya (Chillin' in My 30s after Getting Fired from the Demon King's Army, A Condition Called Love, Merc Storia: The Apathetic Boy and the Girl in a Bottle) is overseeing and writing the series scripts. Sakae Shibuya (A Centaur's Life, Magical Girl Site) is designing the characters, Seima Iwahashi (Our Last Crusade or the Rise of a New World, Quality Assurance in Another World) is composing the music, and Yayoi Tateishi (Domestic Girlfriend, Ron Kamonohashi's Forbidden Deductions) is the sound director.

The "never-before-seen gorilla romantic comedy" fantasy is set in a world where people can be blessed by various animal gods upon turning 16. It follows the coming of age of Sofia Reeler, an earl's timid daughter who happens to be blessed by the Gorilla God (who is said to be the most powerful god in combat).

Shirohi created the novel series on the Shōsetsuka ni Narō service, and Kamisu started serializing the manga on Kadokawa's Flos Comic service in 2021. Kadokawa published the manga's first compiled book volume in November 2021, and the sixth volume on December 5.
