The romance season would not be the same if it did not have one about twins! Kadokawa announces that the twin-centric romance comedy Koi wa Futago de Warikirenai (Futakire) is set to begin broadcast this summer! Along with the announcements, they revealed a new promotional video and visuals introducing the main cast.

Romance, Drama, Twins!
Futakire is based on the popular light novel series written by Shihon Takamura and illustrated by Almic. The series debuted in May 2021, with the fifth volume hitting the shelves in March 2023 recently. The manga, drawn by Okari, is being published by Kadokawa and has released the second volume since July last year.
The romantic comedy centers around Jun, the childhood friend of the two twins with very different personalities. He enters a love triangle with the sisters after falling in love with them. Rumi has a very boyish outlook but is a maiden on the inside. And her twin sister Naori is girly but an otaku as well.
