The manga "Gingham: Oina Keiko Koi Shita Mahou Shoujo-mura" (Gingham: The Absurd Life in the So-Called Magical Girl Village) is receiving a TV anime adaptation. Alongside the announcement, initial details about the production, a preview, and the voice actresses for the main characters were revealed.
The series' story revolves around office worker Tomakomai, who at the age of 43 unexpectedly becomes a so-called magical girl. Together with a group of unusual allies, she eventually ends up in a peculiar place known as the "Magical Girl Village." There, she and her new housemates try to cope with the absurd, dark, and often surreal everyday circumstances. The comedy arises in part from the bizarre situations and dialogues, which are interwoven with more serious undertones.
The protagonist Tomakomai is voiced by Manaka Iwami. Other central roles include Shiori Izawa as Nemuro, Sumire Uesaka as Seikou, and Shiori Obata as Kushiro, Seikou's personal caretaker. Additionally, Sumire Uesaka also voices the role of Seikou.
Mangaka Gingham expressed confidence that the anime adaptation would help make the unconventional work accessible to a broader audience.
