Tomo-chan is a Girl, but people around her often forget it due to her tomboyish personality and sometimes scary attitude. Although it never bothered Tomo, it became an issue when she started having feelings for childhood buddy Jun, who thinks of her as ‘one of the boys.’
The manga concluded over three years ago but is still a hit among rom-com lovers, so an anime adaptation of this hilarious romance is bound to stir things up.
An amusing full-length promo video for the ‘Tomo-chan Is a Girl!’ anime confirms its debut on January 4, 2023. The staff has also revealed that the show will be 13 episodes long.
Besides that, the trailer also previews the anime’s ending theme song, ‘yurukuru＊love.’ It will be performed by Rie Takahashi, Rina Hidaka, and Sally Amaki as their respective characters, Tomo, Misuzu, and Carol.
It begins with Tomo-chan informing us about how she confessed to Jun when high school started and how it was definitely romantic. Jun, being a muscle-head who forgets Tomo-chan is a girl, takes her confession of love as a platonic one and calls her ‘bro.’
While Tomo’s feelings keep growing, Jun’s behavior around her doesn’t make it any easier. Jun has no concept of personal space around Tomo, as he thinks of her as a friend, resulting in the latter getting flustered every time he comes too close to her.
Failing in love and with no idea how to make Jun see her as a girl, Tomo turns to her best friends Misuzu and Carol for help. These two colorful characters agree to help their friend in their own eccentric and sometimes extreme ways.
Moreover, the anime’s new key visual features Tomo and Jun making a heart out of a fist bump with Misuzu, Carol, and others cheering them on in the backdrop.

The best thing about this story is that Tomo never changes her tomboyish attitude to make Jun fall for her. Tomo wants Jun to love the real her instead of someone she’s not, making the story even more wholesome and relatable.
Despite being competitive, sporty, and rough, Tomo-chan is extremely kind, innocent, and soft to the point where it leads to her own downfall. Things like this have made the story cute and popular, and I can’t wait to see it on screen.
