The romance/historical anime with a touch of science fiction, Serenade for a Rainy Day, will be available next spring. Details and a promotional video follow below.
On rainy days, Hina has dreams about her younger self playing with a mysterious boy in a garden she's never seen before—until, by chance, she stumbles upon the place. There's a young man there, Takaaki, who mistakes Hina for his fiancée Hinako. He whisks her back to what he thinks is her home, where Hina's doppelganger is waiting, and Hina realizes this isn't the Tokyo she left behind but Japan in the year 1907! Is this all a dream or something much stranger?

Rainy Day Serenade (orig. Namidaame to Serenade) is a manga by Haruka Kawachi, serialized in Kodansha's Kiss magazine from 2014 to 2025, with a spin-off recently announced.

The anime will be produced by Tezuka Productions, with Takashi Fujii as director, Yoko Yonaiyama (Botan Kamiina Fully Blossoms When Drunk) handling the screenplay, Nobuteru Yuki (Record of Lodoss War, The Vision of Escaflowne, Star Blazers 2199) in charge of character design, Hiroshi Kato as art director, and Yoshie Ito as director of photography.

With the premiere scheduled for April 2027, here is a promo:
