On Monday, February 28th, Chimimo’s official website released the original TV anime’s main cast members and second key visual. You can check out the second key visual below:
The confirmed cast members are the following (left to right based on the image below):
The original TV anime is set to premiere this July. The character designs are the original work of illustrator Kanahei. Shinei Animation will produce the anime, the same studio that created famous series like Doraemon.
At first glance, you’d think that an anime with adorable character designs would have a wholesome plot; however, Chimimo’s story is not that “wholesome.” The comedy centers on Chimimo and 12 other demons who are sent to Earth to transform it into a living hell. Chimimo is a messenger from hell and has the ability to shapeshift.
