Back in December, plans were revealed for A Centaur’s Life TV anime, based on the manga by Kei Maruyama that runs in Tokuma Shoten’s Monthly Comic Ryū magazine. Now we have more information to go on, including details on the main staff and a new key visual.
Let’s start with the staff, which features Fumitoshi Oizaki (Romeo x Juliet, Astarotte’s Toy) as series director and Naoyuki Konno (009-1) as director. Touko Machida (Lucky Star, Hamatora) is on board for series composition, with Sakae Shibuya on character designs and chief animation direction for the Animation Company Emon production.
The three main character designs look like so:
Himeno Kimihara:
Kyoko Naraku:
Nozomi Gokuraku:
Key visual:
Seven Seas Entertainment publishes the manga in North America. Here’s their synopsis:
“Being a teenager is never easy… especially for a centaur! Himeno is a sweet, shy girl, who like many teens her age, struggles with the trials and tribulations of attending high school. The difference is she’s a centaur; but she’s not alone. In fact, all of her classmates are supernatural creatures, sporting either horns, wings, tails, halos, or some other unearthly body appendage. Yet despite their fantastical natures, Himeno and her best friends-the dragon-winged Nozomi, and Kyoko with her spiraled horns-are down-to-earth, fun-loving teenagers who grapple with issues of life and love in a mostly normal daily school setting.”
