The anime’s official website announced Sunday that Yumika Yano voices Kishika Torotoro in its third television season. Kishika appeared in the season’s ninth episode that same day.
The anime adapts Rikito Nakamura and Yukiko Nozawa’s The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You (Kimi no koto ga Dai Dai Dai Dai Daisuki na 100-nin no Kanojo) manga. Kishika is a third-year high school student, the girls’ kendō club captain and Rentarō’s newest girlfriend.
The season premiered on Tokyo MX on July 5 at 10:30 p.m. (9:30 a.m. EDT). It will also air on Sun TV and BS11.
Other cast members joining the new season include:
- Kaori Ishihara as Chiyo Iin
- Ayana Taketatsu as Nadi
- Hana Tamegai as Yamame Yasashiki
- Aoi Koga as Momiji Momi
The returning production staff includes:
- Hikaru Sato (Drop Kick on my Devil!), who directed the first two seasons, directs at Bibury Animation Studio.
- Takashi Aoshima (Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out!) again oversees the series scripts.
- Akane Yano (Bottom-tier Character Tomozaki) continues as character designer.
- Shūhei Mutsuki, Shunsuke Takizawa (Trytonelabo) and eba return to compose the music at Lantis.
The Rentarō Family perform the opening song, “Daisuki♡Zutto Eien ni♡” (“I Love You♡Always and Forever♡”).
Seven Seas Entertainment publishes the manga in English. Its synopsis follows Aijo Rentarō, who asks 100 girls out and receives 100 rejections. Desperate, he prays for help and learns from a god that a cosmic mistake caused his failures.
The god promises to correct the error by giving Aijo 100 dates. There is a condition: 100 girls are destined to be his soulmates. Each will die in a horrific accident unless he returns her feelings.
Girls soon begin declaring their love for Aijo, leaving him unable to choose without putting someone’s life at risk. Every potential soulmate gives him a lightning-like spark of attraction.
The publisher presents the story as a humorous romantic comedy that pushes the harem premise to extremes, asking whether one person can love 100 others.
