The official website for the anime
adaptation
of
Sh? Harusono
's
Sasaki and Miyano
manga revealed the staff, cast, a new visual, and the anime's 2022 television premiere on Tuesday.
The cast are all reprising their roles from the manga's previous drama CDs, and includes:

Studio DEEN
.

) is designing the characters.
Yen Press
licensed
the manga, and it describes the story:
It all started like a typical old-school
boys' love
plotline?bad-boy senior meets adorably awkward underclassman, one of them falls in love, and so on and so forth. But although Miyano is a self-proclaimed
boys' love
expert, he hasn't quite realized…he's in one himself. Which means it's up to Sasaki to make sure their story has a happily ever after…!
Harusono launched the manga on the
pixiv
website in 2016.
Kadokawa
published the manga's seventh volume in November 2020. It has inspired a novel by Kotoko Hachij?. The original manga spawned the
Hirano to Kagiura
spinoff manga about two side characters that runs in
Monthly Comic Gene
. That spinoff manga has in turn inspired its own novel.

Update:
Updated story introduction by
Yen Press
added.
Thanks, MCAL and fencer_x.
Update 2:
The publishers categorize the manga as "
BL
," and note that the
BL
stands for "Boys Life" (everyday life of high school boys). Harusono
added
in a Tweet that the term invokes a combination of
BL
(in the usual definition of "
Boys Love
") and
nichij?
("daily life" or "slice of life").
Thanks, fencer_x and musouka.
