A slice-of-life comedy combined with supernatural and yuri elements makes for an anime that is fun but not too heavy to understand. ‘Hoshikuzu Telepath’ tells the story of an excessively shy girl who meets an alien. While it is hard for the girl to speak up, the alien does not need words to understand her.
Originally, it is a yonkoma (four-panel) manga, so it was a little surprising when an anime adaptation was announced in October last year.
On Tuesday, the official Twitter account for the Manga Time Kirara magazine revealed that the ‘Hoshikuzu Telepath’ anime will premiere in October. It was also displayed on the cover of Manga Time Kirara’s June issue. The main voice cast was also revealed.

Information has been lifted in the June issue of “Manga Time Kirara” on sale today!
The cover of the magazine is Kaika and Yu. Even though they were born on a distant planet, their hearts are still connected. #kirara

Written and illustrated by Rasuko Okuma, the manga tells the story of Umika, a high-school girl who is unable to speak properly because of nervousness. One day a transfer student, Yu arrives. Yu is an alien with an ability called ‘Odekopathy’ which lets her understand the feelings of others.
For the ability to activate, their foreheads must touch each other, which becomes convenient for Umika, who would not have to rely on speaking up to Yu.
The following cast members were revealed:
| Character | Voice Artist | Other Works |
| Umika Konohoshi | Yurie Funato | Leila (The Hidden Dungeon Only I Can Enter) |
| Yū Akeuchi | Seria Fukagawa | Tōko Fukami (GLASSLIP) |
