The official website of romcom anime Cultural Exchange with Game Center Girl announced the anime will air in July 2025. Studio Nomad will animate the series.
New cast members were announced, with Amaki Sally voicing Lily Baker and Chiba Shouya voicing Kusakabe Renji.
Messages from the cast have also been shared, Amaki Sally stated: “I have been following this work as a reader since the original work, and I strongly felt that ‘If it is made into an anime, I want to play Lily! I want to at least audition! I just want to be involved!’, so when I heard that I had been accepted as Lily, I was so happy that I cried! I can’t take my eyes off the relationship between Lily and Renji, which changes drastically through their intercultural exchange! It’s chaotic! It’s happy slapstick! Please check it out!”
Chiba Shouya added: “The two meet at an arcade and communicate in a humorous yet gentle way. I’ve played rhythm games and fighting games, and there is merchandise related to the games I’ve appeared in, so it’s familiar to me, and I was able to get into it right away. This is the only dubbing studio where you can hear English pronunciation like this and talk about English so much. Many people may be wary of English, but Lily’s cuteness is global, so it’s a new kind of work that will blend into our daily lives. I think
you’ll enjoy it with a warm and fuzzy feeling, so please look forward to it!”
New character visuals and a teaser visual were also released.
