The site also revealed a new visual:
Minami Takahashi joins the cast as the character Teruyo Oshie (the character name
in Japanese order "Oshie Teruyo" is a pun for "I'll teach
you"), the homeroom teacher of Bocchi and the others.
Previously
announced cast members include:
Chisaki Morishita as Bocchi Hitori (the
character's name in Japanese order "Hitori Bocchi" is a pun for
"all alone"). She is a new student to Sakura Dai Ni Middle School,
and is very awkward at socializing. She made a promise to Kai, her friend from
grade school, that she will befriend her entire class before graduating from
middle school. She is constantly filled with anxiety, and approaches any
situation with careful planning. She has a keen eye for how her uniform looks.
Minami Tanaka as Nako
Sunao (the character's name in Japanese order "Sunao Nako" is a pun
for "honest girl"). Bocchi's first friend in middle school. She sits
in front of Bocchi in class. She looks stern, and often intimidates people from
her outward appearance, but she is actually very caring toward her friends. She
always supports Bocchi's attempts at making friends. She never does anything
she doesn't want to do.
Akari Kitō as Aru Honshō (the character's name in Japanese
order "Honshō Aru" is a pun for "has a hidden side"), the
vice president of Bocchi's class. She is responsible, always smiling, and is
considered reliable by everyone. However she actually has a pitiful side to her
that only Bocchi and Nako know. She has tried really hard to become perfect
ever since she entered middle school.
Yūko Kurose as Rakita
Sotoka (the character's name in Japanese order "Sotoka Rakita" is a
pun for "came from outside") a beautiful foreigner with blonde hair
and blue eyes, and whom everyone looks up to. She came to Japan alone. She has
always wanted to be a ninja, and somehow mistook Bocchi for a ninja. Now having
been taken in as a pupil, she has begun training. She is very dexterous, and is
good at making origami.
Kana Ichinose as Kako
Kurai (the character name in Japanese order "Kurai Kako" is a pun for
"shadowy past"). She is a public morals committee member whose motto
is "disorder in the body is disorder in public morals." Her rule is
to not make friends, and her goal is to become a strong person who can live
alone. But she is weak to unexpected or surprising things. She wants to know
more about Bocchi's way of thinking.
The four-panel
comedy manga centers around an extremely shy girl named Bocchi Hitori. (Her
name is a wordplay on a Japanese term for solitary.) She enters middle school
and vows to "make friends with the entire class" by graduation. The
story follows her lonely struggle to accomplish her goal.
Katsuwo (Mitsuboshi Colors) serializes the manga in Kadokawa's Comic Dengeki DaiohG magazine, and Kadokawa published
the fourth compiled book volume in February 2018.
