The eagerly awaited anime adaptation of Sunsunsun and Momoco’s light novels, Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings In Russian is set to debut on July 3rd. Ryota Ito at Doga Kobo Studio is in the Director’s chair while Yuhei Murota is in charge of character design.
Meet Alisa Mikhailovna Kujou, the mysterious beauty who keeps her emotions close to her chest. Admired for her stunning appearance and intellect, she remains a distant figure to her peers. But a different side of her emerges in the presence of Masachika Kuze, her benchmate. Despite her aloof demeanor, Alisa’s affectionate gestures are reserved solely for Masachika, often conveyed in her native tongue, Russian.
Masachika, seemingly disinterested in school affairs, secretly understands Alisa’s language, adding a layer of intrigue to their interactions. As their banter grows more playful, their bond deepens, and Alisa finds herself drawn to Masachika in unexpected ways.
As the series gears up for its debut on July 3, Anime Expo 2024 attendees can see Alisa in action through the latest character trailer, following last week’s showcase of Masachika. Stay tuned for weekly releases leading up to the premiere, offering insights into the charming story of Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings In Russian.
