After we got to meet the tricksy tanuki Mameda in yesterday’s character trailer for the upcoming My Master Has No Tail TV anime, based on TNSK’s supernatural comedy manga of the same name, today we learn more about her rakugo master Bunko Daikokutei, who is voiced by Hibiku Yamamura (Noriko in Kiznaiver), in her own brand new character trailer.

My Master Has No Tail is being directed by Hideyo Yamamoto (Cells at Work! CODE BLACK) at studio LIDEN FILMS, with series composition by Touko Machida (Life Lessons with Uramichi Oniisan) and character designs by Ryo Yamauchi (Vivy -Fluorite Eye’s Song- key animator). Kodansha, who releases the manga in English, describes the series as such:

Mameda is a tanuki who was born in the wrong era – all she wants is to trick humans, but that age of tanuki shenanigans is over. But one woman, a rakugo master named Bunko, shows Mameda it’s still possible to cast magic on humans…only with words, not illusions. Mameda is determined to become Bunko’s apprentice, but can she convince the stoic master to take her on…?

My Master Has No Tail premieres in Japan on September 30 on TOKYO MX, MBS, BS Asahi and more stations across the country.
