It has been announced that the TV anime "The Story of the Useless Disciplinary Committee Member and the JK with an Inappropriate Skirt Length," based on the manga by Yokota Takuma currently serialized in "Monthly Shonen Sirius" (Kodansha), will begin airing on TOKYO MX, BS Asahi and other stations from April 6th. Additional cast members have also been announced, including Kaida Tetsu Inada as the student council vice president Furugori Kaoru. The band "osage" will perform the opening theme "Hitorigoto" and the band "Me Minor" will perform the ending theme "Heya to Junk to Watashi."
Kaida commented, "She's a bright, positive, and disciplined charismatic student council president. But she's actually very strong and interested in fashion. When she gets serious, she's so sexy and dynamite that even her childhood friend doesn't notice! She's a very charming character, so it was a lot of fun to play her! At first, I discussed with the staff how much variation I should add to the character, but after that I was allowed to act freely. She enjoys dressing up, so I enjoyed it too. The original work is already interesting, but the anime is even more interesting because the staff in each part are so passionate about making it even better. I can't wait to see the finished product!!"
Inada said, "Whenever I'm called to appear in a school production, everyone probably thinks I'm always going to play a teacher, but I'm actually playing a student. I'm powerful, energetic and wild, with a youthful vibe. Well, maybe not youthful, but I have the spirit to say, "I'm not going to lose to the younger guys yet!" No, as an older man, I don't want to win or lose with the younger guys, I just want to get along with them. Basically, what I'm trying to say is, it's fun, so please watch it."
The main visual and main PV have also been released, featuring characters such as Sakura Daimon Tougo, the incompetent discipline committee member, and Kohinata Hohoe, a high school girl with an inappropriate skirt length.
The story is about two polar opposites, Sakura Daimon Tougo, a useless discipline committee member, and Kohinata Hohoe, a high school girl with an inappropriate skirt length, who gradually grow closer as they get to know each other. The anime will be directed by Iwanaga Taiji and produced by Zero G.
