The core staff bringing this delicate GL drama to life has been assembled, and it’s a group with some solid experience. Here’s a breakdown of the key players:

About the Manga

The source material for this anime is a well-regarded web manga. Kuzushiro began serializing Amayo no Tsuki on Kodansha’s Comic Days website in June 2021. The series has been steadily releasing volumes, with the tenth volume hitting shelves on September 19. Fans can look forward to the eleventh volume, which is scheduled for release on January 20, 2026.

For English-reading audiences, Kodansha USA licensed the manga in November 2022. They’ve been keeping pace, with the eighth English volume released on December 23.

Story Synopsis

So, what’s Amayo no Tsuki all about? It’s a touching story of connection and understanding. One rainy night, a girl named Saki, rushing to a piano lesson, has a fateful collision with a stranger. This tall, lovely person silently picks up Saki’s dropped sheet music, hands it back along with a band-aid, and walks away without a word.

The mystery deepens when Saki discovers the very next day that this stranger is her new classmate, Kanon. Kanon is hearing impaired and maintains a firm, cold exterior, refusing any special treatment from those around her. The story follows Saki’s gentle, persistent efforts to bridge the gap and connect with Kanon over the course of their school year.
