Ani-One Asia announced on March 28 that it will stream the A Hundred Scenes of AWAJIMA and Yowayowa Sensei anime. Both anime will premiere in April. Ani-One Asia also began streaming the Petals of Reincarnation and Kirio Fan Club anime last Friday.

Ani-One Asia describes Petals of Reincarnation:

Touya Senji, a high school student who believes himself to be talentless and feels inferior because of it, encounters Haito Luo Buffett, a "Returner" whose talent blossomed through the "Branch of Reincarnation." After witnessing the battle between Haito and Albert H. Fish, Touya's overwhelming desire for talent leads him to reach for the forbidden power himself...

Shun Kudō (Grendizer U) is directing the anime at Benten Film (formerly Gaina). Atsuo Ishino (The Do-Over Damsel Conquers the Dragon Emperor) is in charge of series composition. Haruna Katō is designing the characters with supervision by Sayaka Ono (BASTARD!! -Heavy Metal, Dark Fantasy-). Kohta Yamamoto (Attack on Titan The Final Season) is composing the music. Pony Canyon is producing the music. Kōsuke Murayama (Grisaia: Phantom Trigger) is the assistant director, and Kentarō Azuma is the action director. Yukio Nagasaki (Love Live! Sunshine!!) is the sound director.

Ani-One Asia describes Kirio Fan Club:

What would you do if your crush had ear-splitting farts? Such are the deep, philosophical questions Aimi and Nami, two friends-slash-rivals in romance, ponder as they pull out every unhinged stop to catch the eye of their oblivious classmate Kirio—conducting nightly rituals to entice him into their dreams and listing what they love about him down to the very last organ. But can their hilarious friendship survive the battle for the heart of this boy who hardly seems to know they exist?

Sō Toyama (episode director for BanG Dream!, The Apothecary Diaries, Love Live! Sunshine!!) is directing the anime at SATELIGHT. Aya Satsuki (A Girl & Her Guard Dog, Solo Camping for Two, Too Cute Crisis) is both overseeing and writing the series scripts, and Nami Hayashi (TASUKETSU -Fate of the Majority-) is designing the characters.

Among the students, rookie teacher Hiyori Hiwamura is feared as the "Scary Teacher," rumored to curse anyone who dares to cross her. But the truth? She has zero stamina, a tiny trembling voice, and every single one of her stats is bottom-tier. She's actually just a "Weak-willed Teacher" who's weak at everything! Abikura, a student in her class who accidentally discovers her secret, decides to help the clumsy teacher so that her hard work doesn't go to waste. As he strives to clear up the students' misunderstandings, he finds himself caught up in all sorts of heart-pounding and suggestive troubles while supporting his beloved Hiwamura-sensei! A slightly spicy rom-com featuring a frail yet adorable teacher begins now!
