It has been announced that a complete series screening of the TV anime "Ikoku Nikki" (Foreign Country Diary), which has been making headlines for winning the March 2026 Monthly Award at the Galaxy Awards, which recognizes programs, individuals, and organizations that have contributed to the improvement of broadcasting culture, will be held on May 30th at Kino Cinema Shinjuku (Shinjuku Ward, Tokyo), with a staff talk session. After the screening, director Miyuki Oshiro, character designer and chief animation director Kenji Hayama, and Pony Canyon producer Tomoki Ueda will take the stage.
"Ikoku Nikki" is a manga serialized in "FEEL YOUNG" (Shodensha) from 2017 to 2023. Makio Kodai, a shy novelist, impulsively takes in his niece, Asa Takumi, who lost her parents at her sister and brother-in-law's funeral. Makio prefers solitude, while Asa is friendly and straightforward, so the two, with completely different personalities and values, begin an awkward life together.
It aired on ABC TV, TOKYO MX, and other channels from January to March.
