Romance Is in the Stars in Insomniacs After School TV Anime PV

While fireworks blossom in the night sky behind them, Isaki Magari and Ganta Nakama share a moment of intimacy in a scene from the upcoming Insomniacs After School TV anime.

 

True love is written in the stars, because a new preview video, a new key visual, the opening theme song performer, and the Japanese broadcast schedule have all been revealed for Insomniacs After School (known as Kimi wa Houkago Insomnia in Japan), an upcoming TV anime based on the drama / romance seinen manga by Makoto Ojiro.

 

The opening theme for Insomniacs After School, entitled “Itsu Aetara” (“When We Can Meet”), is performed by aiko.

The original Insomniacs After School manga is serialized in Shogakukan’s Weekly Big Comic Spirits seinen manga magazine, and an English language version is also available from Viz Media, who describe the story of the series as follows:

 

Dark rumors about what befell the members of the astronomy club keep people away from the school observatory, and that’s what makes it the perfect sanctuary for Nakami and Magari to get some much-needed rest. Unfortunately, the school faculty can’t allow its unsanctioned use. But if there were a new astronomy club, maybe these two insomniacs could have a place to call home!

 

A new key visual for the upcoming Insomniacs After School TV anime featuring the main characters, high school students Ganta Nakami and Isaki Magari, sitting beneath a heavy-duty telescope in an observatory setting. The walls of the observatory are invisible, revealing a vast and beautiful star-filled sky, and a house cat naps between them as they relax and lean against the telescope with their backs while sitting on the floor.
