posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
The official Twitter account for the television anime of Shibai Kineko's Netoge no Yome wa Onna no ko ja Nai to Omotta? (And you thought there is never a girl online?) light novels announced on Sunday that Yoshino Nanjō will perform the show's ending theme song "Zero Ichi Kiseki" (Zero One Miracle). Nanjo's single CD with the song will ship on May 25.
The show's story centers on Hideki Nishimura, a young man who confessed to a person he thought was a girl online, only for that person to turn out to be a boy. He keeps this "black history" secret and swears to never to trust a "girl" online again. However, one day a girl online confesses to him, and it turns out she's actually a beautiful girl named Ako Tamaki. Ako cannot tell the difference between the online world and reality, and she is a loner who has trouble communicating. Hideki and his friends from his guild decide to work together to "correct" her.
The anime's main cast includes:
- Toshiyuki Toyonaga (Durarara!!'s Mikado Ryūgamine) as Hideki Nishimura / Lucian
- Rina Hidaka (Sword Art Online's Silica) as Ako Tamaki / Ako
- Inori Minase (School-Live!'s Yuki Takeya) as Akane Segawa / Schwein
- M.A.O (Overlord's Enri Emmot) as Kyō Goshōin / Apricot
- Hitomi Ohwada (Shirobako's Midori Imai) as Nanako Akiyama/Sette
- Yoshino Nanjō (Love Live!'s Eli Ayase) as Yui Saitō/Nekohime
Shinsuke Yanagi (Ro-Kyu-Bu! SS, Momo Kyun Sword) is directing the anime at project No.9, and Tatsuya Takahashi (The IDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls, Atelier Escha & Logy: Alchemists of the Dusk Sky) is in charge of series composition. The five-member idol group Luce Twinkle Wink☆ will perform the opening theme song "1st Love Story."
The anime will premiere on the Tokyo MX channel at 11:30 p.m. on April 7. It will also premiere on the Sun TV and BS11 channels on April 7 at 26:00 and 24:30, respectively (effectively, on April 8 at 2:00 a.m. and 12:30 a.m.)
