Synopsis: After graduating from high school, Natsuko Hirose starts her career as an animator. Her talent quickly flourishes, and she makes her debut as a director in no time. Her first anime becomes a massive hit, sparking a social phenomenon and earning her recognition as an up-and-coming genius director. Her next project is set to be a romantic comedy movie themed around first love! However, having never been in love herself, Natsuko struggles to understand the concept of first love, and as a result, she’s unable to create the storyboard, causing the movie production to come to a standstill.

This anime is about the Anime Production
The new anime features an introverted main character whose hair covers her face. It is directed by Mitsue Yamazaki, who also directed Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle, a show known for its comfy vibe. Therefore, we might expect a similar feel from this new series. As with every anime from Mappa, it looks visually impressive, maintaining the high quality seen in their other adaptations.
Yamazaki is an experienced director, possibly beginning her career with fantasy shows like many other anime directors. An intriguing aspect of this new anime is that the main character always covers her hair. Perhaps this anime is similar to Shirobako, where a girl finds her passion?
The cast also includes some notable members. The producer previously worked on Yuri on Ice, Banana Fish, Kakegurui, and Bucchigiri. The scriptwriter has experience with Dungeon Meshi, another fantasy anime. The main protagonist, Hirose Natsuko, is voiced by Anna Nagase, who is also set to voice act in Suicide Squad Isekai as Harley Quinn.
There is currently no information on the release date of this anime movie.
