The official website for the television anime of Masaki Ando's Yatogame-chan Kansatsu Nikki (Yatogame-chan Observation Diary) four-panel manga revealed additional cast members, the premiere dates, and a new visual for the anime on Friday.

The additional cast includes:

Mitsuhiro Ichiki as Kaito Jin

Hisako Tōjō also plays Hanka Jin, Kaito's younger sister.

The anime will premiere on TV Aichi on April 4, and on Tokyo MX on April 8.

Team Shachi, OS☆U, and dela — three all-female music units that are primarily active in Aichi — will be the anime's "PR ambassadors." A live-action commercial featuring Team Shachi will debut on TV Aichi and Tokyo MX in mid-February.

Previously announced cast members include:

Haruka Tomatsu as Monaka Yatogame

Yūki Wakai as Mai Tadakusa

Hisayoshi Hirasawa (Miss Bernard said., Netsuzou Trap -NTR-, Jingai-san no Yome) is the chief director for the anime at Saetta, with Creators in Pack credited for animation production cooperation. Satsuki Hayasaka (Hinako Note, High School DxD Hero episode animation director) is designing the characters.

The manga centers on the life of Yatogame-chan, a girl who speaks in the blunt Nagoya dialect. The series highlights regional cultural differences from the area of Nagoya, Aichi.

Ichijinsha's Monthly Comic Rex magazine publishes the manga. Ichijinsha published the manga's fifth compiled book volume last November. The series has more than 200,000 copies in circulation, including digital copies. The manga's title character was appointed as Nagoya Tourism Cultural Exchange Mission Ambassador in March 2017.
