Manga Café Comedy Manga Ichijōma Mankitsu Gurashi! Gets TV Anime
posted on by Egan Loo
The August issue of Houbunsha's Manga Time Kirara magazine announced on Wednesday that a television anime adaptation of Mako Hisamaku's Ichijōma Mankitsu Gurashi! (Living Life to the Fullest in a Tiny One-Tatami-Mat-Sized Room) manga has been green-lit.
The "somewhat sexy manga café comedy" follows Meiko Morita, who moves to Tokyo from the countryside to transfer into an elite girls' academy. In exchange for "free tuition if she does volunteer work," she begins living and working at Hedgehog, a manga café that also doubles as a girls' dormitory. She meets idiosyncratic characters such as Rie Amamiya (a wealthy heiress who serves as Hedgehog's dormitory keeper/café manager and who is into yuri and boys-love manga), Marika Suzuki (a popular streamer on "MuTube" under the name "Marica Belltree"), and Neo Nakano (a pro gamer who competes in world championships).
The manga has been running Manga Time Kirara, and its fourth compiled book volume will ship on July 26.
