Sadly, this isn’t about a group of down-on-their-luck stand-up comediennes.
Earlier today, the official Comic Girls anime website updated with new staff reveals and a promotional video. We break down the details below.
Promo Video
The minute-long trailer introduces the major characters, and cuts between shots of their daily-life “adventures” (can we call them that? Eh, probably not.).

Kaori Hanzawa’s Comic Girls manga began publication in Houbunsha’s Manga Time Kirara Max magazine as a guest series in 2014. The title was picked up for regular serialization later in the year. The title was chosen as a first-round candidate for the 2017 Manga Taisho awards and currently has three compiled volumes in circulation. The most recent book hit stores on June 27.
