【July Yuri Dominance Scheduled?!】Introverted Girl V.S. Perfect Real Princess! "We Can't Become Lovers! Absolutely Not. (※Seems Possible?)" Gets Anime Adaptation, Beautiful Girl Battlefield About to Begin!

Comrades of the Lily Knight Corps, are you ready for the visual feast this July? ヽ(✿ﾟ▽ﾟ)ノ Today's recommendation is one that just reading the title makes you grin uncontrollably—the TV anime "We Can't Possibly Be Lovers! Absolutely Not. (※But Maybe We Can?)" (abbreviated as... well, it's a bit hard to abbreviate, but it's absolutely worth remembering the full title!) is set to officially premiere in July 2025! This work is directly tagged with "Romance," "School," "Harem," "Yuri"—audience, the sugar level here, those who know, know—it's set to be so sweet it'll give you cavities!

🌸 The Great High School Debut Operation of a Gloomy Girl Turning Popular!

The story begins with our heroine, Kanade Renako (CV: Nakamura Kanna). In middle school, Renako was a standard gloomy girl—no friends, didn't go to school, just a big "miserable." But as the saying goes, human determination can conquer heaven (?), Renako-chan, after much reflection, decided to make a 180-degree turn in high school, vowing to become a shining, popular girl!

At the entrance ceremony, she mustered the courage to talk to the blonde beauty—Ōzaka Mayui (CV: Ōnishi Saori)—and surprisingly made a friend just like that! Renako even successfully joined Mayui's top-tier popular girl circle, living a (seemingly) fulfilling high school life together with Senami Shiyōka (CV: Anzai Yukari), Kotozuki Satsuki (CV: Ichinose Kana), and Koyanagi Ka-ho (CV: Tanaka Takako), among others.

Wait, you think this is a smooth-sailing school comedy? Too naive! Our Renako is, after all, still a gloomy girl at heart; forcing herself to act popular every day has completely drained her MP! One day, she went to the school rooftop to secretly recover, but was discovered by a worried Mayui, who mistakenly thought Renako was trying to jump to her death! In the ensuing chaos, the two actually fell off the roof together?! Σ(ﾟдﾟ)

🍐 "Friends" or "Lovers"? The Strange War That Began After the Roof Fall!

Having survived the great fall, the two confessed their worries to each other in the hospital and swore to become "best friends." Sounds lovely, right? But the next day, Mayui-sama went straight for a direct attack—she confessed to Renako! WTF?! Renako was thrown into complete confusion; this plot development is too fast, I can't keep up!

Faced with Renako's bewilderment, our uniquely-thinking Mayui-sama actually proposed a "suggestion": let's have a contest! Let's see which suits us better—being "friends" or being "lovers"!

And so, a fierce (romantic?) war began between Renako, who "wants to be friends with Mayui," and Mayui, who "wants to be lovers with Renako"! Just hearing this setup sparks fly—it's stomach-churning yet sweet, a paradise for yuri fans!

🎧 Luxury Voice Cast x Distinctive Beautiful Girls, Which Pair Do You Ship?

Besides our Renako (height 158cm, FPS game otaku, super cute gap moe!) who's struggling to pretend to be popular, there are:

• Ōzaka Mayui (CV: Ōnishi Saori): Height 167cm, blonde-haired, blue-eyed mixed-race beauty, daughter of a world-class designer, former model, top of her grade academically, excels at sports, the flawless princess! Such a perfect girl is taking the initiative—Renako, just give in!
• Senami Shiyōka (CV: Anzai Yukari): Height 158cm, a gentle beauty with an angelic aura, skilled at cooking, top ten in her grade academically. This kind, big-sister type character seems like she could be a great wingman (or a potential rival?).
• Kotozuki Satsuki (CV: Ichinose Kana): Height 165cm, a black-haired, red-eyed Japanese-style ice beauty, Mayui's elementary school childhood friend and rival, second in her grade. This love-hate (?) childhood friend setup is sure to be dramatic!
• Koyanagi Ka-ho (CV: Tanaka Takako): Height 153cm, a lively, cheerful little-sister type character, self-proclaimed "Mayui stan," and there are even rumors she confessed to Mayui?! This circle is so messy (I love it)!

Look at this cast lineup: Nakamura Kanna, Ōnishi Saori, Anzai Yukari, Ichinose Kana, Tanaka Takako... all are skilled, popular voice actors! A series ready to make your ears pregnant! And just from the character introductions, you can already imagine all sorts of rivalry scenes and intimate moments! The "Harem" tag suggests Renako isn't just some ordinary girl either, or perhaps it's a war for Mayui-sama's harem? (Thinking)

The original work is by Mikami Teren-sensei, illustrations by Takejima Eku-sensei (Takejima-sensei's art style is a guarantee of quality!), and there's a manga adaptation by Musshu-sensei—with such a solid foundation, the anime adaptation is highly anticipated!

In any case, this July, let's all tune in to "We Can't Possibly Be Lovers! Absolutely Not. (※But Maybe We Can?)" and see how the bickering couple Renako and Mayui dance on the line between "friends" and "lovers," and whether it will ultimately turn out to be "seems possible"? I can't wait to binge on this pair! Beautiful girls being intimate is the truth of the world!
