You and I Are Polar Opposites Anime Adds 3 Voice Actors

A trio of new cast members have been announced for the You and I Are Polar Opposites anime, which is coming to the small screen in January 2026. Check out the latest additions along with their respective voice actor comments below.

Yuna Taniguchi voices Watanabe

Comments:

I’m Yuna Taniguchi, and I’ve been given the opportunity to play the role of Watanabe, aka Nabe. I had a bit of a rough start, as things didn’t come together the way I hoped. But over time, I started to feel Nabe’s energy really sink in. I focused on keeping things bright, happy, and true to her carefree spirit, and now I’m genuinely having so much fun playing her. I hope she comes across as that easygoing friend you wish you had around, and I also hope you’re ready to go nuts over Suzuki and Tani-kun’s love story.

Konatsu Hirabayashi voices Sato

Comments:

I’m Konatsu Hirabayashi, and I play the role of Sato. This is my first time playing a regular role in an anime, so I was definitely nervous going in. But every time, the warm and welcoming atmosphere at the recording studio gave me the push I needed. Sato is cool and sharp?really intelligent. And those moments when she throws out these spot-on comebacks to Suzuki or Nabe are so crisp and satisfying. Even during recording, I kept thinking, “Wow, I love how that line lands.” She’s effortlessly calm and steady, never wavering. I absolutely adore that about Sato. As for me, I found myself totally swept up in everyone’s story arcs and my heart was constantly fluttering. I had so much fun soaking in the warmth and brightness that’s been so carefully woven into the show. I’d be thrilled if you could join us in feeling all the excitement and heart-pounding moments right up to the very end. Thank you so much for your support!

Anji Iwata voices Yamada

Comments:

I’ve been a fan of this series since the original manga, and I secretly started practicing the role of Yamada, hoping I’d get to play him if it ever got an anime adaptation. At first glance, he might seem a bit carefree and goofy, but deep down, he’s honest, kind, and just a genuinely good guy. As I take on the role, I really want to bring out all the charm that makes Yamada so lovable. His energetic, lively vibe is something I feel I can draw from my own personality too?so rather than overthinking it, I’m approaching the role without pretense. I hope you enjoy the show!

Takayoshi Nagatomo is lined up to direct the series at Lapin Track, with Teruko Utsumi on series composition, Mako Miyako on character designs and Naho Kozono as assistant character designer and chief animation director.

The manga by Kocha Agasawa, which launched as a one-shot in 2021 and went into serialization in 2022, recently wrapped its run. The series has over a million copies in circulation.

Here’s how VIZ Media describes You and I Are Polar Opposites:

Suzuki’s a high school girl in love, but the guy she’s fallen for is nothing like her! While she’s cheerful, outgoing, and always trying to fit in, her classmate Yusuke Tani is stoic, quiet, and doesn’t seem to care what people think of him. Will Suzuki be able to overcome her anxieties and ask him out, or will she discover that opposites really don’t attract?
