 Publisher Kadokawa opened an official website for a television anime adaptation of Nene Yukimori's Kubo-san wa Mob wo Yurusanai (Kubo Won't Let Me Be Invisible) manga on Friday and revealed the main staff, cast, and a teaser visual (pictured).Kana Hanazawa (5-toubun no Hanayome) and Kengo Kawanishi (3-gatsu no Lion) are starring as Nagisa Kubo and Junta Shiraishi, respectively. Staff Director: Kazuomi Koga (Kanojo, Okarishimasu, Ganbare Douki-chan) Series Composition, Script: Yuuya Takahashi (Lupin III (2015), Selection Project) Character Design: Yoshiko Saitou (Comic Girls, Mushoku Tensei: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu sub-character design) Studio: Pine Jam Yukimori began serializing the romantic comedy manga in Young Jump magazine in October 2019. Shueisha shipped the eighth volume on February 23. VIZ Media licensed the manga in English on October 9 and released the first volume on May 3, with the second volume scheduled to ship on July 5. The series is also simulpublished in English and Spanish on the Manga Plus and VIZ Media's Shonen Jump website. Synopsis High school student Junta Shiraishi has a simple goal—to live a fulfilling youth. However, achieving this goal appears to be harder than expected, as everyone in his surroundings often fails to notice him due to his lack of presence. In fact, Shiraishi's lack of presence is so severe that people think his seat in class is always empty, and mistakenly assume that he often skips school. There is even a weird rumor spreading around in class, claiming that those who successfully spot Shiraishi will be blessed with good fortune for the day. So far, the only person who notices his existence is Nagisa Kubo, the girl seated next to him. Unfortunately for him though, Kubo likes to tease him on a daily basis and often puts him into unprecedented and nerve-wracking situations. However, as Kubo's playful antics continue to involve the reluctant Shiraishi, he may soon discover that his youth might not be as boring as he initially thought.

 |
| HanaKana voicing Kubo san will be absolutely amazing. She suits her character so well. Can't wait to see the anime. |
 |
| This seems really solid, looking forward to it! Didn't expect it to get an adaptation already tbh. |
   (  )    ( ) (  ) |

| HOLY CRAP no way I was just watching an edit on this and thought to myself “I want this to get an anime” and IT CAME TRUE |
 |
| Well, time to update my insulin prescription. Also kanahana is playing a main character that isn't getting rejected? That's a first 😆 |
| Girls teasing boys must really be big in Japan huh |
| This is the same soft-dom-fetish garbage as the forehead child show. Repetitive, generic, pass. |
| Well I for one already loved Lain. |

| The premise is interesting for horror or psychological stories but nah we're gonna stay with comedy about loner boy + waifu formula. |

Tokoya said: Girls teasing boys must really be big in Japan huh Its nothing like that. It actually an extreme sweet series. |
| As a romcom lover, to think I missed this one. lol |
| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| OMG YESSSS IM SO EXCITED, THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE MANGA!! |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
komic said: I was going to watch it anyway (Mostly for my wife HanaKana), but I'm glad to hear thisTokoya said: Girls teasing boys must really be big in Japan huh Its nothing like that. It actually an extreme sweet series. |
| Same shit again and again. I am tired of this teasing girl anime. Anyway hope this doesn't turn out to be like Shikimori. |
| I always hear KanaHana as Kubo when I was reading the manga and the casting was spot on. Here's an audio work of this series as a sample for this. It's in ASMR style so a warning to those not used to binaural sounds. Also a bit of story spoiler as this narrates a manga chapter scenario. |
 |
| HanaKana ? take my money |
| Hanazawa Kana voicing the main isn't something we see very often nowadays, so good thing this adaptation is coming. |
| HOLY SHIT I NEVER THOUGHT IT WOULD BE AN ANIME HELL YEA LESS GO |
| Only you know what you've seen, heard and felt, someone else's opinion is irrelevant. -Kurenai, Deca Dence |
| Pine Jam means easy watch but honestly, DIY is much more interesting. |
| Let's go! This'll be my first adaptation for a manga I'm already reading and it was literally two days ago when I thought that it should definitely get an adaptation. Now I just need Oshi no Ko |

"We are all like fireworks: we climb, we shine and always go our separate ways and become further apart. But even when that time comes, let's not disappear like a firework and continue to shine.. forever." |
| Well well, finally the day has come with Kubo getting an anime adaptation. HanaKana is back being a main female MC, and Kubo's character is SOOO gonna fit her character well, I'm just awaiting and anticipating with high expectations. |
 |
| > Pine Jam Oh no. Luckily there's good VAs and plot seems nice. Studio doesn't make up the plot this time... |
| bruh |
| The Manga is wholesome, so happy the Manga is getting an Anime plus Kana Hanazawa is perfect for Nagisa Kubo 😍 |
| "When There Is Evil In This World That Justice Cannot Defeat, Would You Taint Your Hands With Evil To Defeat Evil? Or Would You Remain Steadfast And Righteous Even If It Means Surrendering To Evil?" |
| That title shows up a lot in... that site. Main girl voiced by Kana, may have to watch this. |

Repetitive, generic, pass. It is true that sometimes shows are not as they appear on the surface. It is a possibility with all works of media, even this one, to exceed expectations. But with that said, why should I not judge a book by it's cover? I don't see anything suggesting this "book" won't be exactly what it looks like on the "cover." Arbitrarily assuming this will be something totally different to what it appears as on the surface is unjustifiable. That would be just blindly hoping it'll be different, with no reason why. |
| Well I for one already loved Lain. |
| VA made it sounds like this will be a good character driven story. not sure about the male mc though. |
| I read the manga a few days ago and I see this, incredible |
| Glad to see this got an adaptation. It is a pretty decent story. Can't wait to see Nagisa's sister. Hanakana?... She's great, but kinda onee-san type now. |
| Shambala is so far Away... |
