Based on the manga by Junta Shima, Yoshinobu Yamakawa (The Duke of Death and His Maid) directs Murai in Love at studio J.C.STAFF, with series composition by Susumu Yamakawa (The Way of the Househusband), music by Ruka Kawada (The Ice Guy and His Cool Female Colleague) and sound direction by Jin Aketagawa.
As previously reported for the series’ live-action drama adaptation, the story tells a romantic comedy between Tanaka, a high school teacher who loves otome games, and Murai, a high school boy who is in love with Tanaka. Tanaka, who has never been involved in a real-life romance, is confessed to by Murai but rejects his confession. On the next day, Murai transforms himself into the exact likeness of Tanaka’s favorite character from her favorite otome game.
Disney+ will begin exclusively streaming the anime on September 4 (regions were not confirmed at the time of writing).
