It is not clear if the teaser is for a US cinematic release, a Bluray release, or both. For now, we’ll just have to wait for more details from Aniplex.

Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend Fine movie is animated and produced by Cloverworks. Kanta Kamei, who directed the OP and some episodes of the Saekano TV anime, is now the chief director. Akihisa Shibata, who was episode director for the series’ two TV seasons, is directing the film. Fumiaki Maruto is handling scripts while character design is still done by Tomoaki Takase.

The main cast from the TV series is also returning for the movie, such as:

·         Yoshitsugu Matsuoka as Tomoya Aki

·         Kiyono Yasuno as Megumi Katō

·         Saori Ōnishi as Eriri Spencer Sawamura

·         Ai Kayano as Utaha Kasumigaoka

·         Sayuri Yahagi as Michiru Hyōdō

·         Chinatsu Akasaki as Izumi Hashima

·         Tetsuya Kakihara as Iori Hashima

Saekano is based on a light novel series written by Fumiaki Maruto, with illustrations done by Kurehito Misaki. It ran from 2012 to 2017 for thirteen volumes, all published by Fujimi Fantasia Bunko. In 2015, it was adapted into an anime series by A-1 Pictures , and a second season followed in 2017.

Anime News Network describes its story as such:

”[The story]revolves around Tomoya Aki, an otaku who is working part-time to earn enough money to buy anime on Blu-ray Disc. He meets a beautiful girl on his way home during spring vacation. He eventually models the heroine of his own dōjin game after her. However, he finds out a month later that the girl is in fact his classmate, and he doesn’t know her name. He learns that the girl — named Megumi — actually is hardly noticed by others. Tomoya also has no artistic ability or writing skills, so he asks ace of the art club Eriri Spencer Sawamura to provide the art, as well as the honor student Utaha Kasumigaoka to write the scenario. Can they produce a decent game for Comic Market?”
