The May issue of Houbunsha's Manga Time Kirara Max magazine is announcing on Thursday that a television anime adaptation of Yui Hara's four-panel comedy manga Wakaba Girl has been green-lit. The anime will premiere in July on the Tokyo MX and BS11 channels in the newly created "Ultra Super Anime Time" timeslot.

The story centers around the activities of Wakaba Kohashi, "a slightly out-of-tune super" daughter of a well-to-do family, and her friends. Wakaba (literally, "young leaves") looks like an elegant rich daughter, but she admires the trendy "gyaru" fashion subculture. There is also the pure, innocent, fairy-tale-like Moeko. Mao is capricious and behaves in her own way. Nao used to be an athletic type of girl, but now loves the boys-love genre.

Wakaba Girl will be one of three short anime (along with Wooser no Sono Higurashi Mugen-hen or Wooser's Hand-to-Mouth Life: Fantasy Edition) to run in the "Ultra Super Anime Time" timeslot from Ultra Super Pictures (SANZIGEN Animation Studio, Ordet, Trigger, LIDEN FILMS).

AntonKutovoi · 2015-07-03, 13:49

Errrr.... I got bored. At 5-minutes anime.
I guess I'll watch another episode, since this one was simply an introduction, but so far it's not really good.

Stark700 · 2015-07-03, 14:03

Was meh imo but cute.

In particular, the Wakaba reaction parts were the funniest.

Flower · 2015-07-03, 17:23

Ep 01

Not bad for a short. Not much to it thus far but I was not expecting Shakespeare from this one either...just Kirara-style "fluff" and carryings on. And that is precisely what we got.

Will follow for now.

Master_Yoma · 2015-07-03, 21:06

Anther short anime and with such cute girls green hair seem to be spazzing out a lot

Patriot's Blade · 2015-07-07, 10:29

so Wakaba is essentially Kiniro's Shino as a twin-tailed oujou-sama but lacking the lust for blondies'?

chaos_animagic · 2015-07-07, 18:14

LOL,

"my Future Dream is to be a High School Girl"

So... Rich Cute Girls doing Cute Things...

PS: them Moe-chan names are Moe.

Maybe producers have found the right kind of show for short episodes: cute girls doing cute things. Somehow, this simple show is working for me. Maybe the fact that it is written by Hanada Jukki (Chuunibyou, Love Live, Sound Euphonium) from a manga by Hara Yui (Kin-iro Mosaic) has something to do with that. I'm liking Ozawa Ari's work as Wakaba. And the character's off-kilter naturalness is great.

This. Very much so.

Although for myself the type of material this series is another example of works well in full length episodes if done well - KinMosa, GochUsa and Hidamari Sketch - it also works plenty fine in this short format.

I am enjoying it as well.

Though I doubt it will win any anime awards or anything.

Patriot's Blade · 2015-07-12, 01:54

Mao-chan is a D-cup meganekko, this should interesting.........

Myssa Rei · 2015-07-12, 09:26

Man, so SO much potential for a crossover with Yui Hara's other work Kiniro Mosaic. Too bad I think Wakaba Girl was too short for a full-length series (while it started at the same time in 2010, I think this one ended serialization in 2013).

chaos_animagic · 2015-07-21, 01:46

Mother recommended France... to go eat for lunch... damn you rich people... LOL

___ ___ __

ep 3:

OTAKU DESU KA

the new phrase for moe girls to run around yelling

And it looks like Wakaba just lost her innocence... (also with her family members...)

___ ___ ___

ep 4:

lol, her cell is a cordless homephone.

Flower · 2015-07-31, 11:32

Ep 05

Annddd ... once again this silly little series delivered. The "study" of Wakaba had me giggling. It worked. ^^

bastek66 · 2015-08-01, 07:06

Flower · 2015-08-09, 12:13

Lovely image there bastek ^^

Ep 6 was more of the same enjoyable Kirara fluff.

Kinda hard to discuss the series since it is absolutely what you see is what you get, but it quick welcome, and works very nicely as a short for me.

Myssa Rei · 2015-08-09, 20:13

So you figure Wakaba's friends will try to do something about Wakaba's curfew? Because it seems most likely, given how matsuri are best enjoyed during the evenings.

The first thing that came to mind was that they would offer to have a sleepover at her house, but now that you mention it they just might try to go straight to the source of the curfew (i.e. Wakaba's parents).
