A Condition Called Love is a high school romance anime following a 16-year-old high school girl named Hotaru Hinase. In the upcoming anime adaptation, Hotaru will be voiced by the ever-popular Kana Hanazawa.

It’s fair to say that Hanazawa is one of the most prolific VAs as she has voiced a myriad of characters in the past decade.

Among her iconic roles include Nadeko Sengoku in the Monogatari series, Akane Tsunemori in Psycho-Pass, and Mayuri Shiina in Steins;Gate, among many other characters.

Hanazawa has also played characters in more recent rom-coms, including Ichika Nakano in The Quintessential Quintuplets and Nagisa Kubo in Kubo Won’t Let Me Be Invisible.

Joining Hanazawa is Chiaki Kobayashi who will voice Hananoi-kun, the love interest of Hotaru.

Kobayashi may not be as prolific as Hanazawa, but he’s arguably becoming one of the go-to VAs for many shows. After all, he’s the voice of Mash Burnedead in Mashle, Gabimaru in Hell’s Paradise, and Stark in Frieren.

A Condition Called Love Anime to Premiere in Spring 2024

A Condition Called Love follows Hotaru, a high school student who is disinterested in romance.

One day, she witnesses a public breakup between a girl and Hananoi-kun. Without thinking too much about it, Hotaru offers to share her umbrella with him as the snow starts to fall.

Hotaru’s life soon takes a turn as Hananoi-kun proceeds to confess his feelings for her at school the following day.

Animating this upcoming series is East Fish Studio, a fairly new anime studio that was only founded in 2017.

The studio doesn’t have many projects yet, but it has worked as a support studio for other productions.

A Condition Called Love will be released in April 2024. There’s no word yet on a specific release date or a streaming platform partner outside of Japan.
