A Condition Called Love TV Anime Announced for 2024, First Visual Released

The award-winning shojo romance manga, A Condition Called Love, is getting a TV anime that will begin airing in 2024. The adaptation was announced with a visual. The creator of the original manga, Megumi Morino, had this to say about the official announcement:

“A Condition Called Love will be adapted into an anime. I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to all the people who are currently involved in the work and to all the readers who have read and supported the original work.
I would like to look forward to seeing Hananoi-kun and others moving and talking and falling in love with everyone.

The manga began serialization in Kodansha’s Dessert magazine in December 2017. As of January 2023, twelve volumes have been released, with the series ongoing. The manga has received numerous nominations and awards; it was a nominee for the 64th Shogakukan Manga Awards in the shojo category, runner-up for the ninth An An manga ward, and took home the Kodansha Manga Award in the shojo category in 2021.

Kodansha publishes the series in English, both digitally and in print, and describes A Condition Called Love as:

Hotaru is a 16-year-old high school first-year who has always been ambivalent about love, preferring instead to have a lively life with her family and friends. So when she sees her schoolmate, Hananoi-kun, sitting in the snow after a messy, public breakup, she thinks nothing of offering to share her umbrella. But when he asks her out in the middle of her classroom the next day, she can’t help but feel that her life is about to change in a big way…
