Waji is a manga creator whose work Trying to Break up With Sex is receiving an AnimeFesta anime adaptation, while their series Hundred Scenes of AWAJIMA is currently airing and being reviewed episodically.
Waji is the creator of two manga series that are currently in active adaptation or release. The most recent development is the announcement on June 12, 2026, that Waji's Trying to Break up With Sex boys-love manga will receive an AnimeFesta anime adaptation. The manga launched digitally in June 2024 and follows Makoto's repeated failed attempts to break up with his boyfriend Yagi. Broadcast timing and cast details have not yet been announced.
Waji's other series, Hundred Scenes of AWAJIMA, premiered its anime adaptation in late May 2026. The series is set at the Awajima Opera School and follows a cast of teenage girls training for the stage. Reviews of the premiere and subsequent episodes have noted the show's ensemble structure, its examination of institutional norms, and its thematic exploration of ambition, chronic illness, religion, and bullying. The premiere drew comparisons to Kageki Shojo but was described as taking a different perspective by offering simultaneous snapshots of many girls rather than focusing on a single protagonist.
As of the most recent stories, Hundred Scenes of AWAJIMA episodes 8 and 9 have been reviewed, with coverage continuing to analyze the series' critique of the school's ingrained senpai-kouhai dynamics and themes of self-determination. Waji's work is currently represented by two concurrent anime projects, one in production and one airing.
