The video, which features the characters' voices but no animation, also announces the anime's main cast, main staff, and 2024 premiere.

​

The main cast members are:

• Shūichirō Umeda as Makoto Hanaoka

Yoriko Tomita (My Dress-Up Darling, Osamake: Romcom Where The Childhood Friend Won't Lose, As Miss Beelzebub likes it.) is in charge of the series scripts. Yukari Hashimoto (March comes in like a lion, Mr. Osomatsu, Sarazanmai) is composing the music.

The anime will air on Thursdays at 24:55 (effectively, Fridays at 12:55 a.m.) in the Noitamina programming block on Fuji TV and other channels. Crunchyroll will stream the anime.

Line Webtoon publishes the manga in English digitally. It describes the manga:

Can true love really overcome any obstacles? Saki, a high school student, confesses her feelings to Makoto. Taken aback, Makoto reveals his secret, but the sudden discovery doesn't seem to bother Saki who is already head over heels for him. After being rejected, Saki asks Ryuji, Makoto's childhood friend, for some advice on how to win his heart. A love triangle unfolds when Ryuji realizes that he might also have some feelings for his old friend.
