Hirayasumi - A gentle story in January on Netflix

The happiness and sense of life of a carefree young man are the focus of the anime Hirayasumi, which is set to arrive worldwide early this year on a popular streaming platform.

"A gentle story follows changing seasons and unchanging days - a moratorium in a gifted bungalow".

At 29 years old, carefree Hiroto Ikuta doesn't have a girlfriend, a full-time job, or a plan for the future - and he couldn't be happier. Hiroto's breezy attitude isn't easy for everyone to understand, though. In a world filled with anxiety, confusion, and grief, Hiroto and the people around him are all just doing their best to figure out this thing called life.

Author Keigo Shinzo launched the Hirayasumi manga in 2021, and it is still ongoing, with over a million copies in circulation and several awards.

The television anime will be directed by Kei Suezawa (FLCL Progressive) at Production +h studios, with Viz Media and Shogakukan-Shueisha Productions Co. producing. Naoyuki Asano (Urusei Yatsura, Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken!) is in charge of character design, Mika Nishimura (Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction) is the art director, and Kaori Sawada (What Did You Eat Yesterday?) is composing the music.

The premiere is set for January 2027 on the Japanese channel NHK General and worldwide on Netflix.
