The January 2022 issue of Monthly Afternoon announced a television anime adaptation of Misaki Takamatsu's Skip to Loafer (Skip and Loafer) manga on Monday.

Synopsis
Excellent student Iwakura Mitsumi has always dreamt about leaving her small town, going to a prestigious university, and making positive change in the world. But she's so focused on reaching her goals that she's not prepared for the very different (and overwhelming) city life that awaits her in a Tokyo high school. Luckily, she makes fast friends with Shima Sousuke, a handsome classmate who's as laid-back as she is over-prepared. Can this naive country girl make it big in Tokyo with Sousuke by her side?

Takamatsu began drawing the slice of life comedy manga in Monthly Afternoon in August 2018. Kodansha published the sixth volume on Monday (pictured). Seven Seas Entertainment licensed the manga in English this February and will ship the second volume on Tuesday.

Skip to Loafer ranked seventh in the male readers' division in the 2020 Kono Manga ga Sugoi! rankings. The manga was also nominated for the 13th Manga Taisho award and in the General category at the 44th Kodansha Manga Awards.
