The anime adaptation of Nanatsu-ya: Shinobu and Her Jewelry Box, the manga created by Tomoko Ninomiya, has officially been announced for a 2027 premiere. Alongside the announcement, the production team revealed a teaser visual, the first promotional trailer, and details about the main staff members working on the project.
The upcoming adaptation will bring Ninomiya’s latest work to television, marking another anime project connected to the creator best known for the popular romantic comedy manga Nodame Cantabile.
Main Staff and Animation Production
The anime will be directed by Chiaki Kon, who previously worked on Nodame Cantabile: Paris Arc and Nodame Cantabile Finale. Seishi Minakami is responsible for series composition, while Mai Furuki will handle character designs.
Animation production will be handled by J.C.STAFF, the studio also responsible for producing the previous Nodame Cantabile anime adaptations.
The announced production staff includes:
- Director: Chiaki Kon
- Series Composition: Seishi Minakami
- Character Design: Mai Furuki
- Animation Production: J.C.STAFF
The involvement of Chiaki Kon and J.C.STAFF is particularly notable given their previous connection to Ninomiya’s best-known work. Their return to another adaptation from the same creator creates an interesting connection between the two projects.
From the Creator of Nodame Cantabile
Tomoko Ninomiya is widely recognized for creating Nodame Cantabile, a romantic comedy manga that combines classical music, romance, and the challenges of pursuing a professional musical career.
The series received the 2004 Kodansha Manga Award in the shojo category, further establishing Ninomiya’s reputation as a prominent manga creator.
With Nanatsu-ya: Shinobu and Her Jewelry Box receiving an anime adaptation, fans will have another opportunity to experience her storytelling through animation.
A commemorative illustration drawn by Ninomiya was also revealed to celebrate the anime announcement, giving the project an additional highlight for readers familiar with her previous works.
Anime Release in 2027
