My Crush’s Crush anime reveals cast and April 2027 debut
The My Crush’s Crush TV anime has confirmed its main cast, Project No.9 staff and an April 2027 Japanese broadcast window.
The TV anime adaptation of My Crush’s Crush will begin broadcasting in April 2027, with the official website confirming its main cast, creative staff and first teaser promotional video. The series adapts Sekina Aoi and Ryō Tsuzura’s manga, known in Japanese as Boku no Suki na Hito ga Suki na Hito (ぼくの好きな人が好きな人). 1
A tangled love story
The official announcement describes a romantic comedy built around three people whose feelings keep pointing in the wrong direction. Sora Akizuki, Asahi Suzukaze and Miya Fuwa each have someone they love, but those crushes form a loop rather than a straightforward triangle. The teaser visual shows the three leads lying together on a rooftop, reinforcing the series’ youthful, emotionally tangled premise. 1
Gakuto Kajiwara will voice Sora Akizuki, Haruna Mikawa will play Asahi Suzukaze and Nene Hieda will play Miya Fuwa. The official site presents the trio as the central characters, with their conflicting feelings driving the story.
Project No.9 leads the adaptation
Kazuomi Koga directs, with Yoriko Tomita handling series composition and Takayuki Noguchi designing the characters. Project No.9, the studio behind series including The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten, is producing the animation. Rina Tayama is composing the music. 1
The announcement also includes comments from the main cast and staff. Kajiwara describes Sora as highly sociable but unexpectedly slow to recognise romantic signals, while Mikawa highlights Asahi’s mix of confidence and vulnerability. Hieda points to the appeal of a relationship setup that refuses to settle into a simple three-way rivalry. Those comments are promotional material, but they match the official description of a comedy driven by crossed feelings.
What has not been announced
April 2027 is the complete broadcast window currently confirmed. The official site does not name an exact day, Japanese broadcaster or streaming service, and it does not establish international licensing or a UK release. Readers should therefore treat the April date as a Japanese broadcast window rather than a global release promise.
The teaser promotional video is linked from the official website, which also opened an official X account for further updates. The visual and video establish the project’s identity, but the production committee has not yet published a full schedule or platform list.
Our opinion
The strongest hook here is not simply that another manga is receiving an anime adaptation. It is the deliberately overcomplicated emotional geometry: three characters, three crushes and no clean route to a conventional confession. That gives My Crush’s Crush a clear identity before a full episode has aired. Project No.9’s involvement and the experienced rom-com staff make the announcement worth watching, but the production still has a long runway before April 2027. Until a broadcaster or streaming partner is named, the sensible expectation is a Japanese debut first, with international availability to follow only if separately confirmed.
For now, the teaser has done its job: it introduces a bright, character-led romantic comedy whose central joke is that everyone’s feelings are aimed somewhere else.
