A TV anime adaptation was slotted for 2023 with the announcement of Norio Sakurai’s The Dangers in My Heart. No details regarding the adaptation we revealed with the announcement at the beginning of August but we got a solid series of updates over the months that have detailed it. HIDIVE revealed previously back in November 2022 that they’ve picked up the series as well.
The Japanese side saw an April 1st, 2023 premiere date for it and with the eighth episode coming up this weekend, some new cast additions for it have been revealed. Yuko Minaguchi will be playing Yamada’s mother in it while Chinami Nishimura will be playing Ichikawa’s mother. Check out the character designs below.
Hiroaki Akagi is directing it from the scripts overseen by Jukki Hanada. Masato Katsumata is working on the character designs for it with Shinei Animation handling the production.
The Japanese cast includes Shun Horie as Kyotaro Ichikawa, Hina Yomiya as Anna Yamada, Ayaka Asai as Chihiro Kobayashi, Megumi Han as Moeko Sekine, Atsumi Tanezaki as Serina Yoshida, Nobuhiko Okamoto as Sho Adachi, Gen Sato as Kenta Kanzaki, Jun Fukushima as Chikara Ota, Aki Toyosaki as Honoka Hara, Yukari Tamura as Kana Ichikawa, and Nobunaga Shimazaki as Haruya Nanjō.
The opening theme is “shayo” from yorushika while Kohana Lam performs “Su Sentimental” as the ending theme song.
Known originally as Boku no Kokoro no Yabai Yatsu, the manga began in 2018 in Weekly Shonen Champion magazine and currently has seven volumes out as of August 2022. Seven Seas Entertainment releases it in English and has four volumes out so far.

Plot Concept: Fascinated by murder and all things macabre, Kyotaro fantasizes about acting on his twisted thoughts to the detriment of his classmates. His heart was dark until an encounter with Anna lit a spark within it in a classic tale of antisocial boy meets popular girl. Now they must both navigate a blossoming relationship and defy the expectations they have of each other and themselves.
