posted on by Joanna Cayanan
Wright Film announced on Friday that Mayu Murata's Honey Lemon Soda manga will get a television anime adaptation, and revealed a teaser visual.
Murata also drew an illustration to commemorate the announcement:
Hiroshi Nishikiori (A Certain Magical Index, IDOLiSH7 the Movie LIVE 4bit BEYOND THE PERiOD) is directing the anime at J.C.STAFF. Akiko Waba (Blue Reflection Ray) is in charge of series composition, Aimi Tanaka (animation director for Sugar Apple Fairy Tale) is designing the characters, and Akira Kosemura (Ao no Orchestra) is composing the music. UNLIMITED PRODUCE by TMS is producing and planning the anime.
Yen Press publishes the manga in English and will release the fifth volume on March 19. Yen Press describes the story:
Middle school left Uka Ishimori with nothing but scars—to the point where she's forgotten how to laugh or cry or even say “hello.” But a chance reencounter with a boy with lemon-colored hair invigorates her, giving her hope that maybe, just maybe, life can be that much sweeter if she finally reaches out for help.
The manga inspired a live-action film adaptation in 2021.
