Hmm, they cast rather new-ish female seiyuus for this one. I do appreciate how the girls' character design, especially for Haruka, has a bit of an athletic build on them.

Kana Yuuki isn't new, just horrendously unemployed as anime roles go.

An anime about girls' beach volleyball. Interesting.

Whenever this debuts I hope Funiroll gets it. Keijo (while not the same sport) seemed to do well enough for them.

A no-named cast for a girls’ beach volleyball anime. Intriguing.

Isn't she doing a role on Black Clover?

She is playing the female lead, Noelle. She also had roles in King’s Game and MMO Junkie last season.

I wonder why it took so long for a beach volleyball show to appear. Athletic girls in bikinis seem like a natural for anime. On the other hand, Japan didn't qualify for either the 2012 or 2016 Olympics.

I expect we'll see a number of Olympic-themed shows over the next two years before the Games come to Tokyo.

I hear the IOC is considering granting status to Keijo.

How is she horrendously unemployed then?

Was supposed to say underemployed, but there's about 3 years of no reoccurring TV roles between Ai Tenchi Muyo and those. Lots of other things though.

Kana Yūki as Haruka Ōzora


Amazing that they got a seiyuu named Kana to voice Haruka because now they're names are the title of the show.
