The official website for Heroine Tarumono! Kiraware Heroine to Naisho no O-Shigoto (To Become a Good Heroine! The Unpopular Girl and the Secret Job) anime revealed a new promotional video that highlights the 4-member idol unit, Full Throttle4. The anime will debut in April 2022.
The anime is based on the VOCALOID song “Heroine Tarumono! Kiraware Heroine to Naisho no O-Shigoto” (ヒロインたるもの!〜嫌われヒロインと内緒のお仕事〜) by creator unit HoneyWorks.
The story of the anime follows Hiyori Suzumi, a high school girl who becomes a manager-in-training for the high school idol unit LIP×LIP. After leaving her hometown to pursue her passion, track and field, she enrolls in Tokyo’s Sakuragaoka High School. But, living on Tokyo is expensive, so she ends up working as an apprentice manager for her classmates (and LIP×LIP members) Yūjirō Someya and Aizō Shibasaki.
