The series also follows the male lead Hitohito Tadano whose schtick is being exceptionally ordinary (his name being a pun roughly meaning “Ordinary Guy”). But nonetheless he becomes the main romantic interest of Komi because of how he helps her try and break free of her shy habits.
The anime was implicitly confirmed earlier this year when a web domain was registered for the anime’s site. The new PV is a little longer than the teaser we were shown a few months ago when the series was officially confirmed.
