The official website for 100 Sleeping Princes and the Kingdom of Dreams: The Animation, television anime of GCREST's Yume Ōkoku to Nemureru 100-Nin no Ōji-sama smartphone puzzle role-playing game, revealed two more cast members on Friday. The two characters appeared at the end of the show's first episode.

The site also revealed a new character design for the original character Kihel (voiced by Yū Miyazaki).
The site additionally revealed that the show will have six home video releases. The first home video release will feature two episodes. The site also revealed that Kenichi Suzumura and Yū Miyazaki are performing the show's ending theme song "Secret Dreams" as their characters.
The series premiered first on the AT-X channel on July 5 at 10:30 p.m., and it will also run on Tokyo MX, Sun TV, and BS11. Sentai Filmworks has licensed the anime, and HIDIVE is streaming the series as it airs.
Yukina Hiiro (Hitorijime My Hero, Chu-Bra!!) is directing the anime at project No.9. Natsuko Takahashi (My Love Story!!, Brothers Conflict) is handing series composition, Majiro (Barakamon, Kabukibu!) is the main character designer, and Masafumi Takada (Danganronpa The Animation) is composing the music.
Sentai Filmworks describes the story:
Enter the mysterious Dream World, where a newly-crowned royal soon learns of an insatiable evil, the yumekui, feeding upon the energy and dreams of sleeping princes who are then unable to awaken. The brave monarch must save them and their world from the dream eater!
The game, which launched on Android and iOS devices in 2015, has the theme of romance with a prince "whom every woman dreams of." The game lets players experience love with over 100 princes who live in the Kingdom of Dreams. Players solve puzzles to wake up the princes from their deep slumber.
The game already inspired a series of web anime shorts last year. Shin Katagai (Neo Angelique Abyss) directed the web anime version at Satelight.
