This year’s My Awkward Senpai TV anime has received a main trailer and main visual, as well as the reveal of an October premiere.
There were also some other announcements, like:
• angela‘s “Bukiyou na I love you” being the opening theme song
• Shogo Sakata‘s casting as Yu Kamegawa
• Ami Maeshima‘s casting as Miho Hotta
• Mitsuki Saiga‘s casting as Ritsu Kankaiji
My Awkward Senpai is based on the manga by Makoto Kudo, which started serialization in Square Enix’s Young Gangan in 2022 and has nine volumes as of March 2025. Comikey describes the premise as:
“Well… as you can see, my senpai’s a little intense – hold on, “a little”?”
Kannawa-senpai is considered many things, but smooth is definitely not one of them. Then she meets Kamegawa, her new Kouhai. He’s cute, a little nerdy, and easy to talk to. How will this awkward Senpai be able to handle these new feelings?!
