The eighth compiled volume of Joshikausei manga has announced a TV anime adaptation for the series on Wednesday. The anime is slated for next year.

Synopsis:
Who needs dialog when you're this cute? The beautiful (but unlucky) Momoko, the cool, collected Shibumi, and the refreshingly innocent Mayumi star in a "silent manga." No speeches, no dialog! Just pictures, sound effects, and three high school girls living their daily lives. (Source: Crunchyroll)

The manga has been serialized via Web Comic Action by Ken Wakai since September 2013. The first compiled volume was published by Futabasha in April 2014. Crunchyroll has also been publishing the manga digitally in English since 2014.

I already see memes and wifus. This'll probably be a hit.

Premise sounds too interesting. So they don't need voice actor for this anime?! that way seems like they really have to do pretty good with visual and music.

So this is how the manga "translator's dream" looks.

I used to "translate" this series, mostly it was figuring out SFX, translating labels on things etc. or cultural details (like the name of the kid's "train" song in the playground in chapter 1). I stopped translating when Crunchyroll started to release it. Great to hear it's getting an anime. It's got to be shorts, it's very episodic and practically the definition of Slice of Life.

Well, I did not read this manga, only "flipped through" a couple of chapters, and it seemed to me that it was rather a set of slice of life scenes.

This looks cute and interesting, and apparently this has no dialogue... I think this will work more as a short format, making it in full length will make the audience feel bored since it can drag on.

if it's not short, it's not gonna works...

Not sure how they will adapt this but it sure as hell looks interesting. Will check it out. Dialogue is overrated anyway.

Sep 11, 2018 8:30 PM by -Sabre-

Probably gonna be a short.

If it's similar in presentation to this Yuru Yuri clip, which is the best moment of the franchise, then I'm going to enjoy it

Anime producers find one easy way to reduce cost of an anime production by half, simply adopt a manga without any dialogue in it.

Anime producers more known as the publisher of the manga wanting to promote their manga to get more sales.

Not something you see every day. Will watch.

Ah, I often to saw this but haven't read it yet. Well, let's see.

The last "silent" manga I know that got an animated adaptation was Gon, but they put all sorts of characters in it who talk while Gon growls. Granted, that was a kids' show; they may be smart and not do that here, but the episodes will have to be short if it's to work.
