Exciting news for anime fans! During Crunchyroll's Japan Expo panel, they revealed that Aya Shouoto's popular manga "The Demon Prince of Momochi House" (Momochi-san Chi no Ayakashi Ōji) will be receiving an anime adaptation. Crunchyroll plans to stream the anime in various regions, including North America, Central America, South America, Europe, Africa, Oceania, the Middle East, and CIS.
"The Demon Prince of Momochi House" follows the story of Himari Momochi, an orphan who inherits a mysterious and beautiful estate on her sixteenth birthday. However, what she didn't expect was that the house exists on the boundary between the human and spiritual realms, and it comes with its very own handsome demon guardian. Himari's role is to act as a guardian between these two worlds, but upon arriving at the estate, she finds three attractive squatters already living there, with one of them seemingly taking on her role as guardian.
Natsumi Kawaida lends her voice to the main character, Himari Momochi, while Takeo Ōtsuka takes on the role of Aoi Nanamori/Nue. The anime is being directed by Bob Shirohata, known for his work on "Hetalia" and "Hiiro no Kakera - The Tamayori Princess Saga," and will be produced by Drive.
The character designs are being handled by Mariko Oka, who has previously worked on "Hell Girl," "Hetalia," and "Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan." Meanwhile, Studio Monado's Yasuko Aoki, known for "Phantom of the Idol," is supervising the series scripts. The music for the series will be composed by Ayana Tsujita and Tomoyuki Kono.
For fans of the manga, it's great to hear that "The Demon Prince of Momochi House" was initially serialized in Kadokawa's Asuka magazine in 2013 and concluded in August 2019 with a total of 16 volumes. Viz Media's Shojo Beat imprint handled the English publication of the series, releasing the final volume in October 2020.
In addition to the anime announcement, fans will be pleased to know that the manga has also inspired a drama CD and a stage play in 2015. Furthermore, there's even more to look forward to, as a limited sequel manga series is set to launch on July 24.
With the popularity of the manga and the talented team behind the anime adaptation, "The Demon Prince of Momochi House" promises to be an enchanting and thrilling journey between the human and supernatural realms.
