As Ha-san (the older sister), I enjoyed dubbing the dialogue that only a younger sister and family can have. The exchanges with Futami, Mizuki’s friend from high school, also have a wonderful atmosphere that lets you feel the strong bond between the two. There are so many unique and adorable characters in each episode, and I felt so happy every time we recorded. Please look forward to the broadcast!

He is currently an adult manga artist and has the nickname “the poster child for clothed eroticism.” He calls Futami “Nana-chan” and adores her.

This is a wonderful work that, as you read, depicts the struggles and joys of those involved in creating manga, making you think, “Creative work is great!” Kazu is a gentle, genius manga artist who is well-known for his “tear-jerking erotic manga.” He doesn’t compromise on what he wants to draw, so he’s a really fun character to play! “TV Anime “A Workplace Where Smiles Never Forget” Broadcast Start Commemoration★Live Streaming SP” to be held!

With the help of my cool editor and reliable assistants, I was finally able to start
serializing my long-awaited shogi manga, “Subaru e,” but… The stress made my stomach hurt, so I had to extend the deadline for the first episode. I couldn’t make any progress on the storyboards, so I ended up working at my desk until late at night. Getting fat from late-night snacks, and never-ending delusions… Can he smile and enjoy the difficult life of a manga artist? ■Official HP https://www.egatae.com/ ■Official X https://x.com/egatae (Hashtag #gatae) (C) Kuzushiro, Kodansha / “A Workplace Where Smiles Never Die” Production Committee For more information about this release
