My Crush's Crush Anime: What's Confirmed and What's Not
My Crush's Crush — the romantic comedy manga from Gamers! creator Sekina Aoi — is getting a TV anime. The adaptation was announced on August 27, 2026, alongside the release of the manga's seventh volume. What is confirmed so far is the green light itself and the creative pedigree behind it; what is not confirmed is almost everything else. Here is the full picture: who made it, what it is about, where to read it, and the details still missing.
My Crush's Crush anime: what's actually confirmed
Right now, only the adaptation itself is official. My Crush's Crush (Japanese title Boku no Suki na Hito ga Suki na Hito) will become a TV anime — revealed on August 27, 2026 by Japanese outlet Comic Natalie and the manga's magazine, along with a commemorative illustration from artist Ryo Tsuzura. No animation studio, staff, voice cast, or release window has been named yet.
The source material carries real weight for a romcom fan. It is written by Sekina Aoi, best known for creating the gaming-club love-polygon comedy Gamers!, with art by Ryo Tsuzura. Gamers! itself was adapted into a TV anime in 2017, so fans already have a sense of how Aoi's tangled comedy of errors plays out on screen. That track record is why the announcement drew attention despite the thin details.
What is My Crush's Crush about?
My Crush's Crush is a romantic comedy built on a chain of one-sided crushes. When Sora Akizuki confesses to classmate Miya Fuwa, she turns him down flat — because she likes Asahi Suzukaze, the president of the mysterious "Clinical Trials Club." Sora joins the club to get closer to the situation, only to discover that Asahi, too, is in love with someone else.
That domino line of unrequited feelings is the hook: everyone likes someone who likes someone else. It is the ensemble misdirection Aoi built Gamers! on, moved from a gaming club to a school-club premise.

Where to read My Crush's Crush now
The manga has run in Hakusensha's Young Animal ZERO since the December 2022 issue (published November 2022), and its seventh volume arrived on August 28, 2026 — nearly four years of chapters for newcomers to binge before any anime airs. English readers have a path in as well: Yen Press announced its license for the series at Anime NYC 2026, though an English release date has not been set.

Should collectors care yet?
Not yet — and that is normal. As a freshly announced adaptation with no studio or air date, My Crush's Crush has no figures, Ichiban Kuji, or other merchandise, and none have been teased. New series almost always wait until the anime airs and finds an audience before goods appear.
Romance-comedy collectors usually fill the gap with the genre's established shelves in the meantime. While you wait on My Crush's Crush news, browse Akibato's anime figures lineup or this season's Ichiban Kuji collection — both ship worldwide from Japan.
