Conquering
human souls sounds like an intimidating task, unless love gets in the way. The
animated adaptation of the fun rom-com Mistress Kanan is
Devilishly Easy (known in Japan as Kanan-sama wa Akumade
Choroi) released its long-awaited main trailer accompanied by a new
promotional poster. The footage confirmed that this sweet and chaotic story
will debut on the small screen on April 4.
The fun
trailer served as a platform to give us a taste of the musical proposal of the
series. The rock band Faulieu will be in charge of injecting
energy at the beginning of each episode with their opening theme
entitled "Hatsukoi Moment". For its part, the VTubers
group Asagiri Koko will set the pace at the end of the
chapters with the song (ending) called "Pop, Snack, Junk na
HUNNY".
