The Dangers in My Heart

Aired: 2023

An anime adaptation of Norio Sakurai's popular romantic comedy serialized in 'Weekly Shonen Champion.' Kyotaro Ichikawa is a chuunibyou-afflicted loner who fantasizes about murderous impulses in his mind, going unnoticed in class. Meanwhile, Anna Yamada is an admired beauty and reader model who shines at the center of the classroom. These polar opposites begin to gradually close the distance between them after a chance encounter in the library. The way Ichikawa becomes drawn to Yamada's unexpected side — like her opening wide to wolf down onigiri — is brimming with the awkwardness and excitement unique to adolescence, capturing the hearts of viewers. The series has been highly praised for its nuanced emotional portrayal and exquisite comedic balance. The opening theme song is 'Shayu' by Yorushika, poetically expressing the bittersweet beauty of youth. The ending theme song is 'Suu Sentimental' by Kohanara Mu, gently embracing the sweet-and-sour feelings of first love.
