Official channels have announced that Nene Yukimori's romcom manga series Kubo Won't Let Me Be Invisible is inspiring a TV anime adaptation by studio PINE JAM.

Below is the first teaser visual.

Kubo Won't Let Me Be Invisible (Japanese: 久保さんは僕モブを許さない, Romaji: Kubo-san wa Mobu o Yurusanai) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Nene Yukimori. It has been serialized in Shueisha's Weekly Young Jump since October 2019.

The story features ordinary, easy-to-ignore high school student Junta Shiraishi (CV: Kengo Kawanishi) who is treated like a video game mob character by his teachers and peers. But this changes after the gorgeous Kubo Nagisa (CV: Kana Hanazawa) starts paying attention to him.
