The TV anime series "Nigashita Sakana wa Ookikatta ga Tsuriageta Sakana ga Ookisugita Ken" (abbreviated as "Nigetsuri") has announced new details about its voice cast. As reported by the production team, Tetsu Inada (known for roles in "My Hero Academia" and "One Piece") will lend his voice to the character of Mimi's father.

This role, originally named "Mimi Chichi," is the head of the Annovazzi family. As the grandmaster of martial arts passed down through generations in this family, he initially raised his daughter Maria (called Mimi) as his heir. However, after the birth of a son, he changes course and now tasks her with finding a suitable husband.

Coinciding with the series premiere, which began airing on Japanese television on April 1, 2026, a non-credit opening video has been released. The video features the opening song "Chikai wa Kyun to." contributed by the music project HoneyWorks feat. Airi Suzuki. The song has also been available digitally since April 2. The opening sequence shows Mimi with a radiant smile and various charming facial expressions.

The romantic comedy revolves around Maria Annovazzi, the spirited daughter of a prestigious martial arts family, who gets caught up in turbulent entanglements surrounding an engagement she knew nothing about. The series is directed by Akira Oguro at Studio TROYCA. It airs on channels including TOKYO MX and BS11.
