Additional character & cast information revealed!

Yamai Koi (CV. Hidaka Rina)

<Character introduction
Ms. Yamai is a yandei.
She loves fashion and is the leader of a group of bright, good-looking girls in her class. However, in reality, she loves Furumi-san. She loves him too much. For this reason, Tadano-kun, who is close to Ms. Furumi, is someone who cannot be left alone in a different way.

<Rina Hidaka's comment

Q1: What is your impression of this work?
Each character is so rich that there are many scenes and dialogues that make me laugh, but there are also moments where I can relate to them or think "I am there! I found myself reading more and more.
And Ms. Furumi is very cute. I wanted to cheer her on as she worked hard despite her clumsiness, and I was moved by the way she gradually grew up.

Q2: What is your impression of the character you play and your enthusiasm for the role?
Koi Yamai is the main character in her class, has many friends, and seems to be what we call "the sunny side", but when it comes to Mr. Furumi... she changes. Since I read the original story, I was shocked at how she changed. (laugh) I will do my best to express that gap in my performance! Also, I personally like Yamai's expression when she is sick, so I am looking forward to seeing her as a fan.

Nakadani Shizuka (CV. Rumi Okubo)

<Character Introduction>
Nakana-san is a chuunibyou.
When she gets close to Furumi-san, the "Dragon Force," a "forbidden power" in her body, reacts. He has been repeatedly reincarnating and asking Princess Comilia (Mr. Furumi) for a "blood contract" because of this reaction. All of this may be a setup. And maybe they just want to be friends.

<Rumi Okubo's comment

Q1: What was your impression of this work?
When I first read it, the soft and gentle parts and the edgy parts were very soothing and made me laugh a lot!
There are many characters with strong personalities...well, too strong personalities, and all of them are very attractive, so I am not sure which one to guess.
It is a work that I would recommend to many people because it can be enjoyed from various directions.
Furumi-san is just so cute, and I am cheering for her and Tadano-kun as they try their best!
Keep up the good work, Ms. Furumi!

Q2: What is your impression of the character you play and your enthusiasm for the role?
Nakano Shizuka-san is a chuunibyou.
She is in the middle of that painful yet fresh sensitivity that everyone must have experienced at least once in their lives.
I have experienced it myself. I know exactly how you feel, and I hope to accompany you as you go through puberty, remembering those days.
She is usually in full-blown Chuuni-sickness, but sometimes she shows her true girly side, which is very cute, so I would like to play my role while valuing that part of her.

Risemiko Kamigami (CV. Yukiyo Fujii)

<Character Introduction
Ms. Kamiiri has stage fright.
Just feeling that people are watching her makes her unable to do anything well. She is also concerned about her appearance, such as being "a little chubby" and having "short legs," and admires Furumi-san, a beautiful girl with good style. The bathroom is her absolute personal space.

＜Comments by Yukiyo Fujii

Q1: What is your impression of this work?
The characters all have strong personalities! As I read the book, Tadano-kun noticed and brought out the cute side of Furumi-san, and as I got to know their kind hearts, I fell in love with them more and more.
I think there are many things that make it itchy for people to get to know and accept each other, such as not being able to express oneself honestly, not being able to communicate well with others, being more sensitive than one's image seen by others, etc., but reading this work makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. I think there are a lot of things that are hard for people to know and accept each other.
I thought it was a very heart-warming work that made me laugh, make me feel happy, and make me want to cheer for the characters.

Q2: What is your impression of the character you play and your enthusiasm for the role?
Uemuri-chan is a girl with stage fright...you might imagine a cute girl, but she has a very strong personality hidden behind a veil of stage fright, or perhaps not so hidden.
She has many different sides to her, which makes her very enjoyable. I will do my best to make more friends for Kamiri!

Comments
I am very happy to announce that I will be in charge of the ED theme song for the TV anime "Furumi-san is a commie. I am very happy to be in charge of the ED theme song for the TV anime "Mr. Furumi is a Comic Syndrome. In this work, the characters with various personalities, including Mr. Furumi, are all very attractive, and I am filled with love for them. I am pleased to be involved in two ED theme songs, and I created a special song called "Sympathy" as the ending song for the first episode. I expressed the exciting moment when you meet new friends or people you care about, and the feeling of wanting to be friends with someone. At school, there are many occasions when the environment changes, such as changing classes and seats, and I imagined the lyrics and music to be enjoyable even to the point of tension at that time. I believe that this song will give viewers a sense of anticipation for who Furumi will become friends with and how she will make friends with them from the first episode. Also, the song "Hikarei nochi" will be on air from the second episode as the ED theme song. In the original manga, I found that what is a flaw for me is seen as a strength by others, and that someone who seems perfect may be living a life looking forward while suffering the same problems as I do.... Everyone has a different face and personality, but I strongly felt that each of them has something that shines through. Hikarei Nochi" is a song that I created in the hope that the lives of the characters and those who listen to it will shine brightly. As a viewer, I am truly looking forward to the release of the anime!
