Hisako Tojo plays the protagonist, Misora Haebaru, in the TV anime of Rui Takato's manga *Hagure Idol Jigokuhen*. The official site, which opened on November 6, announced four cast members and the main staff.

The cast is Hisako Tojo as Misora Haebaru, Nao Shiraki as Sera Goshima, Natsumi Murakami as Yuni Choi and Hikaru Iida as Neon Kori.

Takashi Ando directs, Eiyo Kurosaki handles series composition, Ryuji Iwata designs the characters, and ZincP composes the music. Raiose animates the series, and Wave produces it. The original manga runs on Nihon Bungeisha's Goraku Web!.

The official site also carries comments from the original author, staff and cast. Takato notes that the serialization began 12 years ago and that, after a live-action film six years ago, the story is now becoming an anime, and invites readers to enjoy the first season. Tojo says the hot-blooded, forward-looking way Misora lives made it clear the role would take a great deal of energy, and that this fired Tojo up.

As of November 7, the official site does not give the broadcast period or channels.
