What Is Plus-Sized Elf?
Plus-Sized Elf will be premiering on July 6th in Japan, and will be exclusively streaming with HIDIVE when it debuts. Toshikatsu Tokro will be directing the new anime for Elias with Katsuyuki Sato handling character designs, Yuki Takabayashi overseeing the scripts, and Cher Watanabe composing the music. The first core members of the cast were previously announced as well with Ayasa Ito as Elfuda, Takahide Ishii as Tomoatsu Naoe, Rena Hasegawa as Kuroeda, and Ayaka Fukuhara as Oga.
The opening theme for Plus-Sized Elf is titled "Fried☆Pride" as performed by "REAL AKIBA BOYZ loves Kasumi Taguchi&AiRyA from REAL AKIBA BAND." As for what to expect from the new anime, Plus-Sized Elf is teased by HIDIVE as such, "Naoe-kun, a massage therapist, is about to head home for the day when he's saddled with a rather strange patient. This lovely lady has emerald eyes, pointy ears, and grew up in the forest—everything about her screams 'elf,' except for one thing: her bodacious body. It turns out she left her world but loves junk food in this one, and now her obsession has caught up with her. Can Naoe-kun help this loveable elf girl lose the weight—and keep it off?"
