We learned back in March 2018 that Shinichiro Watanabe was working on a new series with Carol & Tuesday. The official site has now updated with a lot about the Netflix series that’ll get people primed for it. The show is now set for an April 10th, 2019 premiere in Japan (overseas to come later) and we have a new key visual of the cast and a new promotional video. The project had done some global auditioning and that has resulted in two people being brought on with Nai Br.XX and Celeina Ann, who you can see below, handling the songs in the show as Carole and Tuesday respectively.
Additional casting includes Miyuri Shimabukuro as Carole, Kana Ichinose as Tuesday, Sumire Uesaka as Angela, Akio Ohtsuka as Gus, Hiroshi Kamiya as Tao, Miyu Irino as Roddy, and Mamoru Miyano as Ertegun.
The series is scheduled for the spring 2019 season with Shinichiro Watanabe supervising it with Motonobu Hori directing based on the script by Aya Watanabe. Eisaku Kubonouchi is working on the character animation and concept and studio Bones is handling the animation production.

It’s an age where most culture is produced by AI, and people are content to be passive consumers.

Scrapping a living in the metropolis of Alba City, she’s working part-time while trying to become a musician. She’s always felt like something is missing.
Her name is Carole.
There’s a girl.
Born to a wealthy family in the provincial town of Herschel City, she dreams of becoming a musician, but nobody around her understands. She feels like the loneliest person in the world.

They want to make music.
Together, they feel like they just might have a chance.
The two of them may only create a tiny wave.
