WWWaveCorporation's Deregula animation label announced a television anime adaptation of Jyura's Kanojo no Tomodachi (My Girlfriend's Friend) manga on Wednesday, revealing an illustration drawn by the creator (pictured above). The anime series is scheduled to premiere in 2026.

Jyura began serializing the erotic drama manga on Young Magazine Web in May 2021. Kodansha released the sixth volume in October 2025.

Synopsis
Takeru Hidaka is an ambitious high school student aiming for medical school. He has just started dating his first girlfriend, Kaori Koga, and to everyone else, their relationship seems perfectly harmonious.

However, that peace is threatened when Kaori’s best friend, Tomoko Yoshioka, begins to flirt with and seduce Takeru. Caught between loyalty to his girlfriend and Tomoko’s advances, Takeru falls into a double life and a complicated affair. Now, he must navigate a web of lies that puts both his academic future and his emotional connections at risk, all while the constant threat of his secret being exposed looms over him.

You can always produce the decent things you speak of yourself instead of complaining what producers think worth investing their money on is.

Huh, artstyle of the original (the covers at least) don't look like Jyura's usual style. I'm surprised that this is an actual manga (well, sorta) with more than 100 chapters by now.

I was excited for a moment until I saw the studio. Wake me up when it's a proper adaptation and not 5-minute shorts. I will add that there is a twist later on.

@M_Rogers_Reborn Same. Though I can tolerate 12 minute episodes, I hope it's not 3-5 minute ones.

Of course we get an adaption of this hot-mess😆😆. As much as I want any anime studio/production to adapt something by Kintetsu Yamada, we live in a world where you have 5 seasons of Rent-a-Girlfriend so it is what it is. And I say this as someone who reads the manga.

Yes, I will be watching it, but the manga will likely be visually better. Ain’t no saving the story as it is intentionally-garbage. Hopefully, at least “the scenes” are done well, but I won’t hold my breath.
