The upcoming series Mahou Shoujo Nante Mou Ii desu kara has been one of the quieter productions that’s been making its way towards its winter 2016 anime debut. It was just under a month ago that we learned it would be a part of the season and now we’ve gotten a premiere date of January 11th, 2016 for it alongside the first TV spot to show off some actual animation from the show.
The series is set to be directed by Kazuhiro Yoneda, who got attention for his recent work on Yona of the Dawn. He’ll be directing based on the scripts and composition from Kazuyuki Fudeyasu, who is getting script assists from Momoko Murakami. Character designs are set to be done by Kazuaki Shimada, seen most recently with Idolm@ster Cinderella Girls, and they’ll also be serving as the chief animation director.
The cast includes Akane Fujita as Yuzuka Hanami, Yūki Wakai as Miton, Miku Itō as Mafuyu Shinoki, Asuka Nishi as Pochi, Minami Tanaka as Daiya and Nichika Omori as Chiya Sakagami.
It was recently revealed that the opening theme song will be performed by Earth Star Dream.
The manga comes from Sui Futami that began back in March of this year. It currently has eighteen chapters published so far. The anime project is being handled by Pinejam.
Plot concept: The story follows Yuzuka Hanami, a young girl who has few friends but who can do anything. One day, Yuzuka gets accosted by a strange creature named Miton who is digging through a trash dump. Miton tells Yuzuka, “you have the makings of a magical girl” and seems extremely suspicious. When Yuzuka is suddenly transformed into a magical girl, she’s wearing a bathing suit.
