The series will begin airing from July 2015. Twelve episodes in total, running three minutes each are scheduled, and will be broadcast beginning from July 5 on Tokyo MX and Sun TV. The animation production will be handled by Office DCI. Much attention is being paid to this series and how it will depict one person’s outlook on the world of sake.
Miyuki Sawashiro has been announced as playing the role of the protagonist Wakako Murasaki. Sawashiro previously played the role of Kurapika in Hunter x Hunter as well as Fujiko Mine in the Lupin III series.
Furthermore, Yuka Ueno has been decided as the singer of the theme song “Shiawase no Kaerimichi.” It is set to be released on July 7. Ueno is currently a high school student from Tokushima Prefecture and debuted as the singer of the theme song of the 2013 film, Hanako of the Toilet. For the release of “Shiawase no Kaerimichi” on July 7, the format will not be CD, but rather a “music letter,” which will consist of a special envelope delivered to customers that includes two photographs and a serial code which allows them to download the new song. The two photographs will be selected at random from a pool of 20.
Wakako Zake is a manga series by Chie Shinkyu, serialised in Monthly Comic Zenon. Serialization began in 2011, and to date five volumes have been published. The secret of its success is the simple content of tasting sake and side dishes.
