During the 22/7 Birthday Event 2019 on Tuesday, an extra 13th episode for the anime series was announced. The episode will feature three new characters. Aniplex also revealed a promotional video. The television anime will premiere on Tokyo MX, Gunma TV, Tochigi TV, and BS11 at 11:00 p.m. on January 11, 2020, followed by ABC TV, Metele, and CS Nippon. AbemaTV will begin streaming the show the following day.

Mikami Kamiki: Moe Suzuhana (Ano Hi no Kanojo-tachi)


Yuuki Toujou: Urara Takatsuji (Ano Hi no Kanojo-tachi)


Tsubomi Hiiragi: Aina Takeda (Ano Hi no Kanojo-tachi)


The event also announced that Uta Kawase will succeed Mei Hanakawa as the role of Nicole Saitou. Hanakawa announced in October that she is going on an extended hiatus due to health reasons. In a follow up report earlier this month, the idol group announced that Hanakawa will leave 22/7 by the end of 2019.

Takao Abo (Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari) is directing the anime at A-1 Pictures, with Chiaki Nagai (Uta no☆Prince-sama♪ Maji Love Legend Star script) and Reiji Miyajima (AKB49: Renai Kinshi Jourei, Kanojo, Okarishimasu manga author) in charge of series composition. Majiro (Barakamon) is designing the characters.

Just to be clear but those designs are from Horiguchi, but those aren't from the anime as the character designer is different. Those designs are from other products.

Well the picture in this article is indeed char design for anime though. You can see copyright mark on each picture clearly said "ANIME 22/7. It is also displayed on 22/7 anime website"


Whoa, those are really great to the point where I thought it was by Horiguchi.
