The anime adaptation of the Sansha Sanyou manga has finally landed its first promotional video that gives us a taste of the animation style for the series as well as the opening theme song for it. The show also has its cast list run through with a few small samples of dialogue. The formalized scheduling has also been revealed with it landing on April 10th, 2016 on Tokyo MX and others before moving to some regional services over the next few days.
The previously revealed cast includes:
Mai Kanazawa as Futaba Odagir
Ayaka Imamura as Teru Hayama
Yū Wakui as Yoko Nishikawa
Machico as Serina Nishiyama
Aina Suzuki as Asako Kondō
Rika Momokawa as Shino Sonobe
Sansha Sanyo will be directed by Yasuhiro Kimura based on the series composition by Hideaki Koyasu and character designs by Jun Yamazaki. It’s being animated by Dogakobo.
The series is based on the work by creator Cherry Arai, who had some good luck last year in having their series Mikakunin de Shinkoukei receiving an anime adaptation. Sansha Sanyou has been serialized in the magazine since 2003.
Plot concept: The series focuses on three hilarious characters; Futaba Odagiri is the new transfer student with a super energetic personality; Teru Hayama is the class president with a surprisingly mean personality contrary to her innocent looks; and Youko Nishikawa is from a formerly rich, now extremely poor family who still holds on to her princess attitude. These three unlikely students with clashing personalities become good friends and survive the day-to-day teenage life in a very funny story.
