The confirmed broadcast networks are Tokyo MX, Sun TV, KBS Kyoto, BS11, and AT-X. Additional cast and an advance screening event were also revealed.
A new character visual has also been completed. The gorgeous illustration shows a group of six monster girls. With artwork for the new characters and cast comments also released, things are picking up for the broadcast.
The fantasy love comedy follows main character Kimihito Kurusu and the unique monster girls that begin freeloading at his house. At this time, castings have been released for three new characters.
Voicing Suu the Slime is Mayuka Nomura, voicing Mero the Mermaid is Haruka Yamazaki, and voicing Rachnera, an Arachne whose lower body is that of a spider’s, is Sakura Nakamura. They will play cute monster girls along with Sora Amamiya (Miia), Ari Ozawa (Papi), and Natsuki Aikawa (Centorea).
An advance screening event is also confirmed for June 27 at Odaiba Cinema Mediage. This will be a chance to see the first two episodes before anyone else. Six members of the monster girl cast are confirmed for appearances at the screening event. What kind of discussions will leap out are not to be missed. Advance tickets will go on sale on Ticket Pia on June 6 at 10:00 a.m. Tickets cost 2,000 yen (tax included).
In other news, the theme songs that will color the series have also been decided. The opening theme is “Saikousoku Fall in Love” by the six monster girls, and the ending theme is “Hey!

[Cast Comments]
Mayuka Nomura (Suu):
“My impression of Suu is that of an innocent kid. Seeing her learning speech slowly through contact with others will surely bring out feelings similar to watching your own child grow up! (lol) I will put everything I have into conveying the charms of Suu, who is kind, cute, and at times daring!!”
Haruka Yamazaki (Mero):
“I’ll be able to pull of such an elegant, tall beauty, right?!!! On her appearance… Mero is the cutest… and I’m sorry to say a character who can’t help being spoiled by her parents (?)! This is a type of role I have never challenged myself with before, but...I will put my all into playing Mero, so please enjoy!”
Sakura Nakamura (Rachnera):
“Congratulations on the anime adaptation of Monster Musume! I’m Sakura Nakamura and I’m voicing the role of Rachnera. When I read the original work when I auditioned, I was completely captivated by Rachnera who has a bewitching side and plenty of maturity while sometimes showing her ample playful side. She’s a bit different than your average human female, and I want to be able to bring out her unique monster girl charms. I’m taking on this role by putting all of my passion into it!”
