Emihara is the homeroom teacher of Class 1A, where the main character, Umika Konohoshi and her classmates belong. She said that she was struck by the cuteness of the girls drawn with delicate designs in the original manga. “This is my first time voicing a homeroom teacher who can enjoy his youth. I want to do my best as a reliable adult.”

Honami is the younger sister of the main character, Umika. “Just reading the script is heartwarming,” Yomiya said. “Enjoy the performance not only through your eyes and ears, but also through your forehead.”
The anime is slated to premiere in October 2023.
The yuri manga has been serialized in Hobunsha’s Manga Time Kirara since May 2019 and has released three tankobon volumes in Japan so far. The publisher’s official website for the manga briefly describes its first volume as follows:
A shy girl, Umika’s problem is that she can’t speak well because of her excessive stage fright. She has slowly given up trying to make friends. Then one day, a transfer student named Yu appeared. She is an alien and has the ability “Odekopathy”, which allows her to understand the emotions of others when her forehead is pressed against the forehead of another…!? A brilliant coming-of-age story about “yuri” and “space” by emerging author Rusuko Okuma.
