The official Twitter for the Tokidoki Bosotto Russia-go anime by Dereru Tonari no Alya-san ( Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian ) revealed this Tuesday (7) a new visual and premiere date for April 2024.
Synopsis
Alisa Mikhailovna Kujou is the “lonely princess” of Seiren Private Academy. She is a half-Russian beauty with silver hair and is at the top of her class. Plus, she's the student council's accountant and... completely unattainable. However, for some reason, she also took it upon herself to scold the slob who sits next to her in class. Masachika Kuze constantly frustrates her by falling asleep, forgetting her textbooks, and being a generally non-exemplary student. Or at least, that's how it looks from the outside.
She may seem tough, but she doesn't care as much about Masachika as others would think. In fact, she even lets him call her by her nickname, Alya. Anyone who hears the comments she mutters in Russian under her breath can know how she really feels, but since none of her classmates understand the language, she is free to say whatever she wants! However, there is a twist: there is a person who knows what she is saying. Masachika listens to her embarrassing revelations, pretending not to know, while wondering what her flirtatious comments really mean!
Staff and Cast
Ryota Ito ( My Senpai Is Annoying , Shikimori's Not Just a Cutie ) is directing the anime at studio Doga Kobo and is also in charge of the series' scripts. Yuuhei Murota ( Love Live!
