Kaguya-sama: Love is War Started as a Manga

The artwork of Kaguya-sama: Love is war manga is stellar. Viz Media is licensing the manga in English in United States. The blurb goes as follows:

As leaders of their prestigious academy’s student council, Kaguya and Miyuki are the elite of the elite! But it’s lonely at the top… Luckily for them, they’ve fallen in love! There’s just one problem—they both have too much pride to admit it. And so begins the daily scheming to get the object of their affection to confess their romantic feelings first…

Where to stream Kaguya-sama: Love is War Anime

You can stream all three seasons of the anime on Funimation in US. The first anime to air on television debuted in January 2019 and ran for 12 episodes. The show was shown on Hulu, Crunchyroll, and FunimationNow by Aniplex of America. The anime was also available from the firm on Blu-ray disc.

Kokurasetai Kaguya-sama? The second season of the television anime, Tensai-tachi no Renai Zunsen, debuted in April 2020. The anime was broadcast live on Funimation as it was in Japan.

Kaguya-sama: Love is War Anime Film Cast and Release Date

No cast as of now has been announced as of yet. We will update as soon as the cast details are unfolded. Kaguya-sama: Love is War Anime Film has yet to finalise a release date. The film is yet in pre-production.

Kaguya-sama: Love is War Characters

1. Kaguya Shinomiya

Kaguya Shinomiya is one of anime's wealthiest characters and the heiress to a massive fortune. Kaguya's life used to be dictated by her family's wealth and power, but she now wants to live her own life. She may be naive and sheltered, but despite that, she will bravely enter the world of love.

Although she can be chilly and sarcastic at times, Kaguya mostly seeks friendship and deep relationships with others. Kaguya has discovered that kindness and compassion are free and that material possessions don't necessarily make people happy. Kaguya's main goal is to acquire heart wealth.

2. Miyuki Shirogane

The other half of Kaguya-sama's romance is the student council president, Miyuki Shirogane, who is charmingly unexperienced in things of the heart despite not being as sheltered as Kaguya. He is smitten with Kaguya Shinomiya, but he is unsure of how to admit his feelings to her or how to get her to do so first.

Although Miyuki is Shuchiin's best pupil, he rarely brags about it. Instead, he is a kind, giving, and empathetic young man who frequently puts others before himself, even if it means giving out bad dating advice or working part-time jobs to aid his younger sister and his single father, Papa. Miyuki doesn't often make an effort to promote himself.

3. Chika Fujiwara

Chika Fujiwara's friends and her fellow members of the student council have different opinions about the bubbly Chika. She can be loud and annoying, and she frequently cheats at games and loses her cool. But despite the fact that she irritates her friends, she consistently extends to them enormous kindness.

Chika is a cheerful “love investigator” who wants everyone to find true love, and she usually shows her goodwill by making everyone smile with enjoyable games and activities. She is also extremely sympathetic and will break down in tears if she feels she has offended somebody.

4. Yu Ishigami

Yu Ishigami, a friend of Miyuki, never appears as kind as he really is. This student who is an avid gamer has a tendency to be somewhat apathetic and to make sarcastic and cynical comments about everything around him. It's understandable that Miko and Kaguya don't think highly of him.

But that doesn't tell the whole tale. Yu isn't cruel at all; rather, his recent traumatic experiences have left him scarred and have made him “once bitten, twice shy” when it comes to friendship and romance. He genuinely cares for his friends and will defend them, especially his close buddy Miyuki Shirogane. Yu, like Miko, just needs the ideal conditions to display his kind side.
