Fall in Love, You False Angels Reveals Its First Anime Cast

Fall in Love, You False Angels has revealed the two actors leading its 2027 television anime adaptation. The official website published the cast-release promotional video and performer comments on September 12, 2026, giving international fans their first confirmed voices for the romance built around two apparently perfect students who each hide a very different self.
What Was Announced
The official announcement casts Nao Ojika as Otogi Katsura and Taito Ban as Toki Ninomae. The two are the central pair in the story, which began as Coco Uzuki’s manga in Kodansha’s Dessert magazine in 2023. The anime’s official site uses the English title Fall in Love, You False Angels and lists the series for television broadcast in 2027.
The September 12 post is specifically a first cast reveal for these characters. It includes a new video and comments from both performers. Ojika describes Otogi as a strong-minded girl who has been acting out an ideal image in public, while Ban points to Toki’s contrast between his gentle, seemingly flawless exterior and the side he does not show other people. Those comments mirror the premise rather than introducing a separate cast list: the production has confirmed the two leads, but it has not yet announced a complete ensemble.
The official character information identifies Otogi as a popular first-year student known as the “Heart-Shot Angel,” a nickname tied to her polished public image. Toki is her class’s vice representative and is presented as an equally admired, calm, handsome student. The story turns when each discovers the other’s hidden personality and Toki proposes a private partnership based on their shared secret.
MAPPA is producing the animation. The official site also credits the original manga to Coco Uzuki and lists music production by Kensuke Ushio, but the September 12 news item’s central new information is the casting of Ojika and Ban and the release of the cast PV.
Why It Matters
This is a meaningful early signal for an adaptation whose appeal depends on performance as much as on plot. The premise is not simply that two students have secrets; it is that each character performs a socially acceptable version of perfection and then reacts when that performance is seen through. The cast announcement therefore establishes the voices that will carry the series’ main contrast between public composure and private bluntness.
That contrast could also shape how the adaptation distinguishes romantic tension from comedy. Otogi’s public identity is deliberately polished, while her private personality is described as self-assured and direct. Toki appears considerate and faultless, yet the official introduction also leaves a clear question mark around his real personality. Ojika and Ban will need to make the shifts legible without turning the characters into two unrelated versions of themselves. The newly released video is the first production material that lets viewers judge that approach.
The announcement also confirms that the project is moving beyond a bare adaptation notice. The official site had already identified MAPPA and a 2027 broadcast window; with the two leads now cast and a cast video public, the production has begun defining the anime’s core relationship. The site says the manga has surpassed 2.35 million copies in circulation as of September 2026, which gives the adaptation a substantial existing readership, though that figure is not a forecast of the anime’s performance.
Context for International Fans
The official anime site provides an English rendering of the title, but the newly confirmed cast information is presented on the Japanese-language site. The cast-release PV is available on YouTube, and the official anime page embeds it, so viewers outside Japan can access the announcement video even though the surrounding news text is not fully localized.
There is not yet a confirmed broadcast month, Japanese broadcaster, international streaming service, subtitle plan, or territory list on the official pages checked for this report. “2027” is the confirmed window; a more specific release date would be a future announcement. The same applies to the English-language manga situation: the official pages identify Dessert and the Japanese manga volumes, but they do not establish an English publisher or reading service for overseas readers.
For fans planning ahead, the practical takeaway is to treat the project as announced for 2027 rather than scheduled for a particular season. The cast PV is useful for recognizing the leads, but it does not confirm worldwide availability. Streaming access, language options, and regional licensing may be announced separately by a distributor, so international viewers should not infer those details from the Japanese production site alone.
What Happens Next
The next concrete information to watch for is a month-and-day broadcast date, followed by the Japanese broadcast outlets and any overseas distribution announcement. The official site’s news, movie, and character sections are the most direct places to check for additional cast, staff, music, trailers, and key visuals. A full release schedule would turn the current 2027 window into a usable viewing plan for fans in different time zones.
Until then, the confirmed milestone is the September 12 cast reveal: Nao Ojika voices Otogi Katsura, Taito Ban voices Toki Ninomae, and MAPPA is animating the 2027 television series. Everything beyond that—including an exact premiere date and international availability—remains not yet confirmed.
