On Thursday, September 7, the Hoshizuku Telepath anime series announced its October 9, 2023, release date via the official Twitter account of its manga publication magazine. The series will serve as a television anime adaptation of Rasuko Okuma’s original manga series of the same name, which is serialized in Houbunsha’s Manga Time Kirara magazine.
While the Japanese broadcast information has been fully confirmed, international streaming options for fans outside of Japan have not. Presumably, the Hoshizuku Telepath anime will be picked up by at least one streaming platform for international distribution, but this has been unconfirmed as of yet.
In any case, fans have a full staff and cast list for the highly anticipated Hoshikuzu Telepath anime, which is set to imminently premiere in the coming weeks. New prospective fans as well as long-time readers of Okuma’s original manga series are thus hoping to see a successful adaptation of the four-panel manga.
