Kodoani.com – Kadokawa has just revealed the main character image and announced the upcoming TV anime premiere in July, based on the romcom novel “Gimai Seikatsu” (Days With My Stepsister) by author Ghost Mikawa and illustrated by Hiten, on Monday.
Below are the actors and roles in the anime:

“Gimai Seikatsu” focuses on the story of Yuta Asamura, who has to get used to having a new step-sister, Saki Ayase, after his parents remarried when he was in high school. Both have an understanding of the relationship between men and women through their parents, and to maintain harmony in the family, they agree to keep a distance that is not too far, but not too close either.
