Kakushite! Makina-san!! Anime Announces Ending Song Artists, April 6 Debut
posted on by Joanna Cayanan
The anime's "hidden" or broadcast version will premiere on the Tokyo MX channel on April 6 at 25:20 JST (effectively, April 7 at 1:20 a.m. or April 6 at 12:20 p.m. EDT), and the "unhidden" or "deregulated version" will stream on WWWave Corporation's AnimeFesta site. (The broadcast version will also be available on AnimeFesta, as well as on DMM TV and other services.) The anime will start running on the BS Fuji channel on April 9.
The risqué romantic comedy manga's story centers on Eita, an introvert mecha otaku high schooler who has a crush on the school's most popular girl Makina. When Eita finds Makina at her doorstep, he is flustered, and even more so when Makina reveals her secret: that she is a "sexaroid" robot designed for pleasure, and she is asking Eita to conduct some repairs on her discreetly. While Makina immediately tries to make a move on Eita physically, Eita struggles to contain himself, while also hiding her secret.
The anime will star (character name romanizations are not confirmed):
- Tomoyo Takayanagi as Makina Agatsuma
- Yō Taichi as Eita Akutsu
- Yūki Kuwahara as Mimika Imose
- Hina Natsume as Mamimi
- Eriko Matsui as Aruma Sakimori
- Ryoko Shintani as Ōya-san (Landlady)
Masayoshi Nishida (Allison & Lillia, Grandpa and Grandma Turn Young Again) is directing the anime at BloomZ with animation cooperation by Wolfsbane. Kentaro Iino (episode director for Classroom of the Elite II, Ragna Crimson) is the assistant director. Yōhei Kashii (Peter Grill and the Philosopher's Time - Super Extra, My One-Hit Kill Sister) is both writing and overseeing the series scripts. Yūsaku Nakamura (chief animation director for Love Flops) is the main character designer, and Kyōhei Matsuno (Dragon Goes House-Hunting, Don't Call Us A JUNK GAME!) is composing the music.
The anime's staff revealed on March 5 that Serena Kōzuki will perform the opening theme song "Ie de Yeah! tte Age Tiger."
Sato (Crossing Time) launched the manga in Futabasha's Monthly Action magazine in October 2022 as a full color serialization. Futabasha published the manga's fourth compiled book volume on December 12.
