The anime adaptation of Kyoko Hikawa's Kanata Kara, titled From the Other Side, began broadcasting on October 5, 2026, after a premiere date of October 4 was announced in September. The series is a 35th anniversary adaptation of the manga, which ran in LaLa from 1991 to 2002.
The anime adaptation of Kyoko Hikawa's Kanata Kara, released under the English title From the Other Side, moved from announcement to broadcast across two stories. In September 2026, the production set a premiere date of Sunday, October 4, 2026, and released a key visual, a main promotional video, four new cast members, and details for the opening and ending theme songs. Six authors from the magazine LaLa contributed support illustrations. The manga, which ran in LaLa from 1991 to 2002, sold over 4 million copies and won the Seiun Award.
By October 9, the series was confirmed to have begun broadcasting on October 5. The story follows Noriko, a high school student sent to another world and saved by a man named Izark, in a setting where she does not understand the local language. The original manga started in 1991, ran for 11 years, and was made up of five parts.
The same October 9 fall anime guide that noted the broadcast also listed From the Other Side alongside Keroro Gunsou and Ace of Diamond act II -Second Season-, which airs on TV Tokyo's six-station network from October 11 at 17:30. The guide gave From the Other Side no broadcast date or staff listing of its own, so the confirmed scheduling and production details remain those from the September announcement and the broadcast report.
