Nanatsu-ya: Shinobu and Her Jewelry Box Set for 2027 TV Anime

A website opened Wednesday, announcing a 2027 television anime adaptation of Tomoko Ninomiya’s Nanatsu-ya: Shinobu and Her Jewelry Box (Nanatsuya Shinobu no Hōsekibako). It also unveiled a teaser trailer, teaser visual and main staff.

Ninomiya drew a celebration illustration for the announcement.

The anime’s main staff includes:

• Director Chiaki Kon at J.C.STAFF, whose credits include Nodame Cantabile: Finale, Nodame Cantabile: Paris (Nodame Cantabile: Paris-hen) and The Way of the Househusband (Gokushufudō).
• Series script writer Seishi Minakami, whose credits include A Certain Scientific Railgun (Toaru Kagaku no Railgun), Sugar Apple Fairy Tale and Sacrificial Princess & the King of Beasts (Niehime to Kemono no Ō).
• Character designer Mai Furuki, whose credits include I.Cinnamoroll and Mewkledreamy.

Kodansha’s K MANGA service publishes the manga in English. The story follows Shinobu, a second-year high school student whose family runs Kurata-ya, a long-established pawn shop in a breezy central Tokyo neighborhood.

Shinobu helps at the shop outside school and can see the auras gemstones emit. She has no boyfriend, but her grandfather chose a fiancé for her: Akisada Kitagami.

Akisada comes from a prestigious family, and Kurata-ya took him in when he was young. He now sells jewelry for a first-class brand and carries plenty of secrets.

Ninomiya launched the ongoing manga in Kodansha’s Kiss magazine in November 2013. Kodansha will publish its 28th compiled volume on November 13.

The manga took several hiatuses during 2018–2019 because of Ninomiya’s health.

Ninomiya’s earlier manga Nodame Cantabile ran in Kiss from 2001 to 2009. Del Rey released 16 volumes in North America before it stopped publishing manga.

Kodansha USA Publishing later published all 25 volumes in English digitally. The manga received three television anime series, alongside live-action drama and film adaptations.
