Romantic Killer | OFFICIAL TEASER

Aug 23 (Netflix Anime) - “Romantic Killer,” the manga by Wataru Momose that began its run in 2019 in issue 35 of Shueisha's Shonen Jump+ and won the 2nd Jump Vertical Scroll Manga Award, is finally getting an anime adaptation as a Netflix series!

Anzu Hoshino is a "non-heroine type" high school girl who pays no attention to fashion or romance and spends every day playing video games. When the wizard Riri suddenly appears, Anzu is forced to participate in the Magical World's project to stop population decline. This romantic comedy depicts what happens when Anzu goes from living a life immersed in her three favorite things — video games, chocolate, and cats — to being surrounded by handsome guys. Anzu is steadfast in her claim that she never wanted to live in a dating simulation game. She meets a handsome guy who is so popular it hurts, a clean-cut and athletic childhood friend, and a beautiful rich young guy who is naive about the outside world. By meeting Anzu, they all begin to change gradually.

The Netflix Series "Romantic Killer" starts streaming worldwide from Thursday, October 27, 2022, only on Netflix!
