A new visual of Kurogane Otoha, a highly skilled lady drummer who appears in the TV anime "Rock wa Lady no Tashinamideshite," based on the manga by Fukuda Hiroshi currently being serialized in the manga magazine "Young Animal" (Hakusensha), has been released. This is the second in a series of "character gap visuals" that express the gaps between the characters, and depicts a contrast between an elegant and ladylike Otoha holding a parasol, and an Otoha clad in a radical outfit, beating the drums furiously and with an ecstatic expression on her face. Otoha's character PV has also been released. Voice actress Miyuri Shimabukuro will play Otoha.
"Rock wa Lady no Tashinamideshite" is a manga by Fukuda, who is known for "The World in 5 Minutes" and "Tojo Senjin!! Mushibugyo", and began serialization in "Young Animal" in October 2022. It is a youth story with the theme of "young lady x rock". Suzunomiya Ririsa, a former commoner and former rock girl who became super rich after her mother remarried and was forced to live a cramped life, abandoning her guitar and her own feelings in order to behave like a young lady at her school, meets Lilisa Suzunomiya, a highly skilled young lady drummer who attends the same school, and rekindles her love for rock and begins to enjoy band activities.
The anime will be directed by Shinya Watada and produced by BN Pictures. It will be broadcast on TBS starting in April.
