The upcoming anime adaptation of Kouji Seo’s manga series Fuuka has been moving right along and as we’re now under a month until its debut in Japan as part of the winter 2017 season, the next piece has arrived. That come sin the form of a quick hit but appealing TV spot that gives us a taste of the music as well as the animation. The series is set to be directed by Keizo Kusakawa based on the series composition by Akashiro Aoi and character designs from Honda Yoshino.
The Japanese cast that was previously revealed includes:
- Okitsu Kazuyuki as Kazuya
- Kobayashi Yuusuke as Haruna Yuu
- Hayami Saori as Hinashi Koyuki
- Lynn as Akitsuki Fuuka
- Saitou Soma as Mikasa Makoto
- Komatsu Mikaku as Sara Iwami
- Kanako Mitsuhashi as Suzuka Akitsuki
- Daisuke Nakamura as Yamato Akitsuki
When it comes to the music, the opening theme song is being performed by “Hedgehogs”, which is an in-show group, with the song “Climber’s High.”
While Seo’s previous series Suzuka finished back in 2007, he came back with a new series serving as a sequel to it with Fuuka that began in February 2014 that Crunchyroll has been doing simulpub work with and that Kodansha Comics has been bringing out digitally to other platforms.
Plot concept: New meetings always come suddenly! The protagonist, Yuu Haruna, moves into a new town where he meets a somewhat strange girl who doesn’t have a cell phone. The girl, Fuuka, seems to have a strange allure that draws people to her, very much like a summer breeze. Looks like Yuu has been caught up in one wild love story!
