The Lonely Snow Widow and the Cursed Ring Anime Sets October Debut
The official website for the television anime of Puuzaki Puuna's adult dōjin manga The Lonely Snow Widow and the Cursed Ring announced on Friday that the series will air in October on Tokyo MX and BS11 in Japan. OceanVeil will stream the series this fall. The anime's English title differs slightly from the manga's English title. Kazuomi Koga is directing the anime at Studio Hōkiboshi, with Eeyo Kurosaki overseeing series scripts, Minakyawa Akapiv as character designer, and Miyako Nishida as chief animation director. Production is by Suiseisha. The cast includes Harumichi Shidō as Satoru Takahashi, Rikka Kitami as Mifuyu Yukino, and Sara Ayumi as Kaede Kiryuin. The story follows Satoru, an apartment manager who angers his secret crush, Mifuyu, a snow woman living in the same building. He uses a mysterious ring said to help communicate with yokai, but it makes Mifuyu suddenly forward, leading to repeated physical encounters. Puuzaki Puuna claimed this is the first time an adult dōjin manga will be adapted directly into a TV anime without a prior commercial version. The anime will feature an original story different from the manga.
