While the audience for the show is there and continues to anticipate it, the fans for Non Non Biyori aren’t getting a whole lot of advance promotional material. That changed slightly today as we got a new key visual for it as well as information on the music for the series via the official site. The new visual, which you can see below, came with news that the opening song will be performed by nano.RIPE, which will be familiar to Hanasaku Iroha fans, while the ending song goes the more traditional route of having the four leads from the series singing the song.
The Silver Link animated series is set for an October 7th premiere. The show is adapted from the series by Atto, which runs in Monthly comic Alive since 2009 and has five volumes released so far from the seinen magazine. The series is one that through the promotional videos released so far and the artwork, you can tell is a very slow paced work that won’t set the world on fire but will definitely capture a certain segment of fans quite well.
Plot concept: Elementary school student Ichijou Hotaru has moved with her parents from Tokyo to the middle of the country. Now she must adapt to her new school, where there are a total of 5 students in the same class who range through elementary and middle school ages. Join their everyday adventures in the countryside.
