- Mirai: Kugimiya Rie
The new cast members also shared messages:
Ootsuka Houchuu: “I will be playing the role of Kako. When I looked at the materials when I auditioned, I had a sudden realization: ‘Ah, this is the role for me.’ Ideas for the character came to me one after another, and I was able to speak fluently. I had a lot of fun acting, and I was very happy to get the role. Please enjoy the mysterious and meaningful exchanges with Hanako-kun.”
Kugimiya Rie: “I’m Kugimiya Rie, who will be playing the role of Mirai. When I first saw the character, I thought, ‘What a lovely appearance!’ But when I looked more closely, there were times when she had a disturbing expression. I tried to act with a wide range of expressions as the character. When I first came to the studio, I was greeted with a very warm atmosphere and was able to perform in a relaxed and enjoyable manner. I hope that everyone will enjoy watching it as much as I do. Thank you!”
About Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun:
The famous Seven Mysteries that every school seems to have are a staple of Japanese urban legends. One of the most well-known of these tales is that of Hanako-san: the ghost of a young girl who haunts the school’s bathrooms. Kamome Academy has its own version of Hanako-san’s legend. Rumors claim that if one successfully manages to summon Hanako-san, she will grant her summoner any wish. Lured by the gossip, many people have tried to call upon her, yet every attempt has failed. However, when Nene Yashiro, a girl hoping for romantic fortune, dares to summon Hanako-san, she discovers that the rumored “girl” is actually a boy! After a series of unfortunate events involving Yashiro’s romantic desires, she is unwillingly entangled in the world of the supernatural, becoming Hanako-kun’s assistant. Soon, she finds out about Hanako-kun’s lesser-known duty: maintaining the fragile balance between mortals and apparitions.

About Toilet-Bound Hanako-Kun
"Hey, do you know? The story of the Seven Mysteries of this school..."
The most famous rumour about the Seven Mysteries passed down at Kamome Academy is that in the third stall of the girl's bathroom on the third floor of the old school building, there is Hanako-san, and they say that if you call her, she will grant any wish.
The method to call her is simple. Knock three times, then say:
"Hanako-san, Hanako-san, are you there?"
"Yes, yes..."
To have her wish granted, the occult-loving girl Yashiro Nene calls upon Hanako-san.
However, the one who appeared before her was a ghost boy, Hanako-kun.
Even though he is a ghost, he is sadistic and a little lewd, and Nene, at his mercy, gets caught up in various ghost stories.
Will Nene be able to live out her school life safely?
