posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
The official website for the television anime of Yoshino Origuchi's Monster Girl Doctor (Monster Musume no Oisha-san) light novel series revealed the two main cast members for the anime on Friday. Saori Ōnishi plays Saphentite “Sapphee” Neikes (left in visual below), while Shunichi Toki plays Glenn Leitbeit (right).
The anime will premiere this year.
Yoshiaki Iwasaki (We Never Learn: BOKUBEN, The Familiar of Zero, Last Period: the journey to the end of the despair) is directing the anime at Arvo Animation (We Never Learn: BOKUBEN). Hideki Shirane (Date A Live, Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?) is in charge of the series scripts. Hiromi Kato (Kobato., Chain Chronicle, ID-0) is designing the characters. TO-MAS is composing the music.
Seven Seas Entertainment is releasing the novels in English, and it describes the story, which is "endorsed by OKAYADO," the author of the Monster Musume manga:
In the town of Lindworm where monsters and humans coexist, Dr. Glenn runs an exemplary medical clinic for monster girls with his lamia assistant, Sapphee. Whether receiving a marriage proposal by a centaur injured in battle, palpating the injury of a mermaid, or suturing the delicate wounds of a flesh golem, Dr. Glenn performs his job with grace and confidence. But when an unsavory character seeks to steal a harpy egg, how will the unflappable Dr. Glenn respond...?
Yoshino writes the series and Z-Ton, one of the artists featured in the Monster Musume: I ♥ Monster Girls anthology, provides the illustrations. Shueisha published the seventh volume last November. Seven Seas Entertainment released the fourth volume last May.
