Hey there, anime fan! If you love visual novels or heartwarming summer stories, we’ve got great news! The much-anticipated Summer Pockets TV anime adaptation is coming in 2025.
Back in December 2021, they announced the anime was in the works, and now they’ve shared a bunch of details to get us excited. Let’s dive in!
Who’s Making It?
The team behind the anime is fantastic. Tomoki Kobayashi, who directed “Remake Our Life!” and “Seiren,” will direct the anime at Feel Studio. Makoto Takigasaki, the president of Feel and the producer of “The Yakuza’s Guide to Babysitting,” will handle animation production. This duo promises a visually stunning and heartwarming show.

One change is Nene Hieda voicing Kamome Kushima. In the original game, Kamome was voiced by Tomomi Mineuchi, but she retired from voice acting in 2022. Hieda seems like a great choice though, and she’ll likely do a great job.
Setting the Scene
Bihou, Inc. will handle the art, with Shunichiro Yoshihara as the art director and Kaoru Aoki on the art setting. We can expect beautiful summer landscapes and character designs. Teruaki Tokumaru is on board as the special animation director, promising amazing special effects.
The crew also includes Sari Tagawa on color design, Fumi Nanba as director of photography, Kōhei Ogawa on 3DCG, Rumi Maruyama handling editing, and Ryōsuke Naya as sound director. With this talented team, Summer Pockets looks to be in good hands.
A Summer to Remember
While we don’t have an exact release date in 2025 yet, this news is worth celebrating. Summer Pockets is a beautiful story about friendship, love, and growing up, set in a charming island town. With this amazing team, the anime adaptation has the potential to be an unforgettable summer experience.
