The meaning of life in the anime Hirayasumi
Read...
The anime Hirayasumi, based on the manga of the same name, which has already inspired a live-action series, will arrive next year. Info and first teaser below.
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 series 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.
Expected to premiere in January 2027 on the Japanese channel NHK General, here's a very first English teaser:
