Shikimori's Not Just a Cutie Episode 3 Introduces Hiro Shimono as Fuji Shikimori


Shikimori's Not Just a Cutie Episode 3 is finally here and it featured an awesome debut of another cool character. We finally got to meet Micchon Shikimori's older brother Fuji Shikimori and he is being played by Hiro Shimono!

In Shikimori's Not Just a Cutie Episode 3, Shu Inuzuka presents Yuu Izumi with movie tickets and Izumi immediately asks an excited Shikimori on a date. While Izumi worries about how his misfortune will affect their date, Shikimori is more concerned about finding the perfect outfit. While she is looking for the right thing to wear, her older brother Fuji walks into her room to tell her she is being too loud.

It's a brief interaction between the siblings but fans were delighted to see Fuji Shikimori in the anime. The introduction is even better considering that Fuji is being voiced by none other than Hiro Shimono who has played a lot of memorable characters in his career.

If Fuji sounds familiar, this is because he is voiced by the same actor who plays Connie Springer in Attack on Titan, Dabi in My Hero Academia, and Nacht Faust in Black Clover. Hiro Shimono is best known for his awesome portrayal of Zenitsu Agatsuma in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba.

For now, it is unclear if Fuji will play a larger role in the anime. The character is a minor one in the manga but he also happens to be a fan favorite because of his good looks. In the meantime, fans are still happy to finally see him in Shikimori's Not Just a Cutie Episode 3.

Shikimori's Not Just a Cutie Episode 4 is titled Beginning of Summer, Everyone's Feelings ("Rikka, Sorezore no Omoi") and is set to premiere on Sunday, May 1, 2022.
