Kubo Won't Let Me Be Invisible

2023 · 1 season

A gentle, low-stakes school romance that quietly charms with soft teasing and small moments of connection.

Created by
Haruka Yabuuchi, Hidetoshi Watanabe
Genres
Animation, Comedy
Starring
Kana Hanazawa, Kengo Kawanishi, Shoya Ishige
Overview
First year high schooler Junta Shiraishi is a mob character who goes unnoticed even when he's standing right next to you. But his classmate, "heroine-level beauty" Kubo, always notices him and is there to tease him. Anyone can become special to someone, but it might be a little too early to call these feelings "love." Perhaps this story is still two-steps from being a romantic comedy--let's call it a sweet comedy where a background character becomes visible!
