Shaft's Mona Lisa Anime Sets 2027 Broadcast, Reveals Visual and PV
A 2027 slot with only a visual, a PV and a cast list means Shaft's adaptation is still more than a year from airing, and the promotional material is doing the work of holding attention until then.
Reporting from 1 source: Denfaminicogamer.
The TV anime adaptation of Yoshimura Sen's manga Seibetsu "Mona Lisa" no Kimi e. will air in 2027. The first main visual and first main PV are out, the PV featuring part of imase's ending theme "Mayoi wa Hikari" and animation by Shaft. Chika Anzai plays protagonist Hinase, joined by Yoshino Aoyama, Nobuhiko Okamoto, Daisuke Sakuma, Chiharu, Sho Hatano, Haruki Mikawa and Shion Wakayama. The manga has passed 1 million copies in circulation.
The manga's premise gives the cast its shape: everyone is born without gender, and around age 12 the body shifts toward male or female according to the heart. Hinase reaches 18 without changing while friends and classmates choose, and two childhood friends, the male Shiori and the female Ritsu, confess to them.
Shaft animated the PV, which carries part of imase's ending theme "Mayoi wa Hikari." The 2027 broadcast year is the only date given so far.
