Hotel Inhumans Anime Casts Kōki Uchiyama

The official website for the television anime of Ao Tajima's Hotel Inhumans manga unveiled on Sunday the episode visual, teaser promotional video, and cast member for the anime's upcoming first episode titled "Sister Sister."

A "keyword" related to the episode is hidden in the episode visual:

Kōki Uchiyama appears in the first episode as Shao, an assassin who gets badly injured after he gets betrayed in his "final job," and his request is to be reunited with her younger sister.

The anime will debut on TV Tokyo and its affiliates on July 6 at 11:45 p.m., before airing on BS TV Tokyo later that evening, and then on AT-X on July 10.

The anime stars Yūsuke Kobayashi as Ikuro Hoshi and Hinano Shirahama as Sara Haizaki.

Tetsuro Amino (Macross 7, Shiki, Iwa-Kakeru! -Sport Climbing Girls-) is directing the anime at Bridge, with Shoji Yonemura (Parasyte -the maxim-, Wave, Listen to Me!, Shaman King 2021) in charge of the series scripts, and Shingo Fujisaki (Let This Grieving Soul Retire!) designing the characters. Haru Yamada is the sound director and Koharu (Charan-Po-Rantan) is composing the music. imase performs the opening theme song "Mister Moonlight" and NOA performs the ending theme song "Merry Go Round."

The manga centers on the titular hotel and its two concierges, Sara and Ikurō, who service a very particular clientele: assassins. Not only does the hotel offer top-class dining, relaxation, and entertainment, but it also boasts an ever-fresh arsenal of weapons, false identity creation services, and a world-class cleaner crew. Here, assassins cross paths with each other as Sara and Ikurō tend to their needs without question.

Tajima launched the manga in Shogakukan's Sunday Webry site in June 2021. Shogakukan published the manga's 10th compiled book volume on March 12, and will publish the 11th volume on Monday. The manga is nearing its ending.
