The television anime adaptation of Makoto Ojiro’s Insomniacs After School romantic comedy manga has revealed a new key visual, the third trailer, and the premiere date on April 10, 2023.
The opening theme song “Itsu Aetara” (いつ逢えたら) is performed by Aiko, who commented that she also suffers from insomnia like the anime’s protagonists. She hopes that her song will bring resonance to those who can’t sleep, and wishes that everyone can find meaning in their sleepless nights, just like the main characters from the anime.
The story of Insomniacs After School centers on high school student Ganta Nakami, who suffers from insomnia, and his classmate Isaki Magari, who suffers from the same syndrome. After meeting each other in an astronomical observatory that has been used as a storage room, they end up sharing a secret place on a sleepless night. The new trailer shows how the two characters share their problems and develop their relationship by taking photographs of the beautiful starry sky.
