A TV anime adaptation of SHY by bukimi miki Jitsuki has been decided. Staff and cast information, a teaser visual, and a teaser PV were also released.
SHY, currently serialized in Weekly Shonen Champion (Akita Shoten), is a story about the growth of Shy, a shy girl who is a hero in Japan, in a world where there is one hero in each country of the world. The series has been published in book form in Japan and abroad, gaining support mainly in Europe, and the latest volume, volume 16, was released today, October 6.
The main character Shai / Momijiyama Teru is played by Shimoji Shino. The animation is directed by Masaomi Ando and produced by Eight Bit. The teaser visual depicts the hero Shai and momijiyama Teru, a high school student who transforms into Shai. The teaser PV also shows Shai’s “transformation” from the frame drawing of the original work to the animation, along with the character voice of Shai, played by Shimoji. Comments from miki, the author of the original work, Ando, the director, and shimoji, who plays Shai / momijiyama Tell, have also arrived. miki, who also drew an illustration announcing the anime adaptation, expressed her feelings, “I think Shai herself is nervous to death about the anime adaptation, but if her hard work can encourage as many people as possible, I couldn’t be happier.
Congratulations! The anime adaptation has been finalized!
Comment from miki Bukimi (original author)
I would like to thank all the people who have supported and helped me with the manga work SHY so far. Thank you for being born…!
I know Shy herself is probably nervous to death about the anime adaptation, but if her hard work can encourage as many people as possible, I couldn’t be happier.
Let’s all enjoy Shai’s dynamism and shyness, which has been increased a hundredfold by the anime adaptation…!
Masaomi Ando (director) comment
There are so many heroes in the world today, but what is the definition of a hero?
I think it is probably someone who fights not to run away from what he or she can do, no matter how scary it is.
That is why she is a hero in this work.
Please look forward to her activities in the anime!
Comment from Shino Shimoji (Shy / momijiyama Teru)
She is a shy hero as her name suggests, but I think she is cooler than anyone else in the way she faces her own weakness and fights. I feel that this work is full of that kind of strength.
Although the recording session is still just beginning, I am looking forward to it more and more every day. I would like to carefully perform the role so that I can deliver to you the energy I felt when I read the original work!
