Netflix Adds Sasaki and Miyano Anime on September 1

The television anime premiered on Tokyo MX, KBS Kyoto, and Sun TV in January 2022. Ani-One Asia streamed the series in India as it aired in Japan and describes the anime:

Miyano is a high school junior who secretly loves BL manga and has a feminine looking face. An encounter made senior Sasaki who knows nothing about BL inexplicably fascinated by him. A love story between these two high school boys is going to begin!

Shinji Ishihira (Fairy Tail, Log Horizon, Talentless Nana) directed the television anime at Studio DEEN. Takahiro Ueno was the assistant director. Yoshiko Nakamura (Super Lovers, Shōnen Maid, Tada Never Falls in Love) was in charge of series scripts. Maki Fujii (I've Always Liked You, The Moment You Fall in Love, Our love has always been 10 centimeters apart.) designed the characters.

Sasaki to Miyano: Sotsugyo-hen (Graduation Chapter), the new anime film based on the manga, opened in Japan on February 17, and screened alongside an anime short adaptation of Harusono's Hirano and Kagiura spinoff manga.

Harusono launched the manga on the pixiv website in 2016. Yen Press licensed the manga. Kotoko Hachijō penned a novel adaptation that shipped in March 2020. The Hirano to Kagiura spinoff manga about two side characters launched in 2019 and runs in Kadokawa's Monthly Comic Gene magazine. That spinoff manga has in turn inspired its own novel.
