The above image is from the main PV of the TV anime Kujima Singing House Hororo, credited to (c) Akira Konno/Shogakukan/Kujima Production Committee. If you want to see the visuals in high quality, the trailer definitely does justice to the unique art style of the manga.
What is Kujima Utaeba Ie Hororo About?
For those who are new to the series, Kujima Utaba Ie Hororo is essentially a sitcom that focuses on the shared life of the Konoda family. The household has a bit of a tense atmosphere lately because everyone is quite concerned about the eldest son, who is currently a ronin (a student who has failed entrance exams and is studying independently). Into this stressed environment comes Kujima, a very mysterious creature who just decides to start living with them.
The main PV gives us a glimpse into how it all starts, showing the moment Arata Konoda first meets Kujima while the creature is busy looking for coins under a vending machine. From there, it shows the funny and heartwarming interactions between Kujima, Arata, and the rest of the Konoda family members as they go about their daily lives together.

Musical Themes and Special Comments
The music for the show seems very promising. The opening theme is titled "Kororo Hijizaka" and is performed by the popular band Galileo Galilei. On the other hand, the ending theme will be "Hororo Shoyo" by Mami Kadodo, who is also responsible for the entire soundtrack of the anime. It is quite interesting to see the same person handling both the BGM and the ending song.
The announcement also included some heartfelt comments from Akira Konno and Kakudo, as well as a video message from Yuki Ozaki of Galileo Galilei. The main PV actually uses snippets of both "Kobe Hijizaka" and "Hororo Shoyo," so you can get a taste of the music right now. If you like what you hear, the advance distribution for both songs will start at midnight on April 10th. To stay updated with all these releases, visiting a guide to the anime and manga is definitely recommended.
