The upcoming Russian TV anime, “Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings,” has piqued interest with the reveal of two new character visuals, further stirring the excitement for its April 2024 premiere. Following the previously released key visual featuring the protagonists, Alya and Kuze, these latest additions offer a glimpse into the expanding cast and their potential roles in the story.
One of the newly revealed characters is Masachika Kuze, voiced by Kohei Amasaki. While details about his character remain under wraps, his visual portrays a confident young man with sharp features and a determined expression. Fans speculate that he might be a love rival for Kuze, adding a layer of romantic complexity to the narrative.
The other unveiled character is Maria Mikhailovna Kujou, or Masha for short, voiced by Yukiyo Fujii. Masha is depicted with a vibrant personality, contrasting Alya’s reserved nature. Their contrasting personalities raise questions about their dynamic and how it might influence the story’s development.
These new visuals come alongside the confirmation of the anime’s release date, solidifying its place on the highly anticipated Spring 2024 anime schedule. Studio Doga Kobo, known for its expertise in slice-of-life and romantic comedies, will be bringing the series to life under the direction of Ryouta Itou, who previously charmed audiences with “Kawaii dake ja Nai Shikimori-san.”
With its intriguing premise of exploring hidden emotions and its charming character designs, “Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings” is shaping up to be a must-watch for anime fans seeking a heartwarming and relatable story. The wait until April might feel longer now, but these new visuals offer a satisfying appetizer, further fueling the anticipation for this unique Russian-produced anime.
