Dengeki Bunko's official Twitter account announced on Tuesday that an anime of Hitoma Iruma's yuri light novel "Adachi to Shimamura" (Adachi and Shimamura) is in production.
Kadokawa will reveal more information about this project in the future in Dengeki Bunko magazine and on the magazine's official website Twitter.
The novel revolves around two high school students, Adachi and Shimamura, who spend their time playing table tennis in the school gym, or talking about their favorite TV series or food, while thinking about each other.
Iruma launched the novel series in Dengeki Bunko magazine in 2013 with illustrations by Non. Kadokawa will publish the novel's eighth volume (seen right) on Friday—the first since the seventh volume shipped in 2016.
Mani drew a three-volume manga adaptation on the Gangan Online website from 2016 to 2017. Iruma previously announced on his blog in March that the novels are inspiring a new manga adaptation.
Iruma's Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko light novel series ran for nine volumes from 2009 to 2011, illustrated by Buriki. The novel inspired a television anime that aired between April and July 2011.
Iruma also wrote the novel Yagate Kimi ni Naru – Saeki Sayaka ni Tsuite, a spinoff of Nio Nakatani's manga Yagate Kimi ni Naru. The novel was released last November, and a second volume will also be released on Friday, the same day as the eighth volume of Adachi to Shimamura.
It was also revealed that Moke Yuzuhara will launch a new manga adaptation in the monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh magazine on May 25.
