The newly announced cast members are:

The cast also includes:

Reina Ueda as Miyako Hoshino

Maria Sashide as Hana Shirosaki

Rika Nagae as Hinata Hoshino

Akari Kitō as Noa Himesaka

The four-panel comedy manga's story centers on Miyako Hoshino, a shy college student and otaku. Miyako's younger sister Hinata, who is a fifth grader, has a classmate and friend named Hana. When they meet, Miyako falls for Hana at first sight.

The anime is reuniting staff members who worked together on the New Game! anime. Daisuke Hiramaki (episode director for Yuruyuri San Hai!, Shirobako, New Game!) is directing the series at Doga Kobo (Tada Never Falls in Love, Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun). Hiromi Nakagawa (chief animation director for Himouto! Umaruchan, Rewrite) is designing the characters, and Yuka Yamada (Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid, My Sweet Tyrant) is in charge of series composition.

The series will premiere in January. Tokyo's Kadokawa Cinema Shinjuku is hosting a "Kadokawa Cinema Shinjuku ni Tenshi ga Maiorita!" (An Angel Flew Down to Kadokawa Cinema Shinjuku!) advance screening event of the first episode with a talk show segment featuring Ueda, Sashide, Nagae, and Kitō on December 30.

Mukunoki launched the manga in Ichijinsha's Comic Yuri Hime magazine in 2016, and the publisher released the third compiled book volume on June 15. The fourth volume will ship on November 15.
