As mentioned above, the official website for the Seiyu Radio no Ura Omote anime series officially confirmed the April 2024 premiere window for the series. While a narrower, full-fledged release date has yet to be confirmed, this will likely be announced in the weeks leading up to the start of the Spring 2024 anime season.
The news also announced two new cast members for the series, which are Ikumi Hasegawa and Nao Toyama. Hasegawa plays Otome Sakuranamiki, a voice actress who is like an older sister to central character Yumiko Sato. Toyama joins as Yubisaki Mekuru, a voice actress at Yuji’s office. Hasegawa is likely best known as the voice of Bocchi the Rock!’s Ikuyo Kita, and Toyama as Rent-A-Girlfriend’s Ruka Sarashina.
The pair will join starring cast members Miku Ito as Yasumi Utatane/Yumiko Sato, and Moe Toyota as Yuhi Yugure/Chika Watanabe. The pair are reprising their roles from a promotional video for the light novel series released in 2020. Ito will also perform the opening theme song, entitled “Now On Air."
Hideki Tachibana is directing the anime series at CONNECT studios, and Shoko Takimoto is designing the characters and serving as the chief animation director for the series. Keiichiro Ochi is supervising the series scripts. It’s expected that additional staff will be released as April approaches.
The original light novel series was launched in February 2020 under ASCII Media Works’ Dengeki Bunko imprint. This was followed by a manga adaptation which began over a month later in late March 2020, illustrated by Umemi Makimoto. Both formats are still ongoing, but have yet to be released in English in any official capacity at the time of this article’s writing.
