Emi Nitta is set to voice the guide pigeon Hato in the short-format anime Yuruyuru Zukan, premiering in October on TV Tokyo's Animori! program. She is also scheduled to appear as a guest vocalist from μ's at the LoveLive! Orchestra Concert in January 2027.
The two stories place Emi Nitta in separate projects running in different directions. The Yuruyuru Zukan anime adapts Gakken's children's book series about animals and mythical creatures and gives Nitta the role of Hato, the guide pigeon. Keizo Abe directs at IMAGICA Infos and Imageworks Studio, and the series is a short-format show set to premiere in October on TV Tokyo's Animori! program, carried by TV Tokyo and five affiliates. The casting was revealed in a teaser promotional video released by TV Tokyo.
Separately, Nitta is one of five μ's voice actors scheduled as guest vocalists for the LoveLive! Orchestra Concert on January 10 and 11, 2027 at Chiba Prefectural Culture Hall. Grand Philharmonic Tokyo performs, and the guest list also includes Aya Uchida, Pile, Riho Iida, and Aina Kusuda. The January 11 date runs in two parts, day and night, and the earliest advance ticket lottery opened at 10:00 on September 26.
Both stories are announcements rather than results. One is a children's television adaptation with a confirmed cast, staff, and broadcast home. The other is a concert return for a franchise voice cast, with the venue, orchestra, and ticket schedule fixed. Nothing in either story reports on the production status or reception of the other, and no further Nitta projects are named.
