The Twilight Out of Focus (Tasogare Out Focus) anime will adapt the manga written and illustrated by Jyanome. It was serialized by Kodansha’s Honey Milk BL magazine from Jun 2018 to May 2019. Kodansha USA licensed the first volume in English in March 2022 and describes the plot:
Film enthusiast Mao Tsuchiya and his lone wolf roommate Hisashi Otomo make three promises: ① That Mao will never tell anyone that Hisashi is gay and has a boyfriend, ② That Hisashi will never approach Mao “in that way,” and ③ That they’ll respect each other’s “private time.”The second-years’ ground rules should ensure a peaceful life together in their dorm, but reality is never as simple as it seems in the movies, and some things are not so easily promised…
The series has multiple sequels that follow the first volume, titled Twilight Out of Focus. They are Afterimages in Slow Motion, Overlap, The Evening Monologues, and Long Take. The franchise also includes Soft Focus En Rose one-shot.
