The official TV anime adaptation of the Charisma multimedia project, titled Chojinteki Share House Story Charisma, has confirmed its premiere for January 7, 2027. The announcement arrived alongside a full-length trailer that introduces the show's eccentric cast and the technical staff bringing the share house to life for the Winter 2027 season.

Premiere Details and Production Staff

The series will air on Thursdays at 11:56 p.m. JST across 28 TBS-affiliated stations. Studio Pierrot Films is producing the animation with Joji Furuta serving as the series-wide director. The scripts and series composition are handled by Shu Matsubara, who also serves as a sound director alongside Kyoko Wada.

Staff for the series include character designer Haru Watanabe, who also shares chief animation director duties with Han Seungah. The visual aesthetic is further supported by art director Seiki Tamura and color key artist Yukiko Kakita. The musical score is composed by Gesshoku Kaigi under the music production of Evil Line Records.

Cast and Theme Song

The series features a central cast of seven "Charisma" individuals, each representing a specific personality trait. Yuki Ono stars as Fumiya Ito (Charisma of Good and Evil), joined by Masahiro Yamanaka as Rikai Kusanagi (Charisma of Order), Katsumi Fukuhara as Iori Motohashi (Charisma of Obedience), and Kenta Hosoda as Kei Sarukawa (Charisma of Rebellion). Rounding out the house are Saku Hyuga as Ohse Minato (Charisma of Internal Punishment), Genki Okawa as Terra (Charisma of Self-love), and Tomohisa Hashizume as Amahiko Tendo (Charisma of Sex).

New cast members announced on November 1 include Shinnosuke Tachibana as Soemon Nakagami and Tomohiro Ono as Shuu Torahime. The main cast will perform the opening theme song, "Mite Mite Anime no Charisma."

Why It Matters

The project represents a major expansion for the Charisma franchise, which was originally developed by the creative team behind Hypnosis Mic. It marks the transition of these characters from character-based situation comedies and music videos into a full-length narrative series. The story focuses on the daily lives of seven eccentric young men living together while pursuing the concept of "true charisma."

Where to Watch

As of November 2, 2026, no international streaming platforms have confirmed licensing for the series. While outlets like Crunchyroll have reported on the premiere date news, they have not yet announced whether the show will be available on their service for viewers outside of Japan. Plans and prices for streaming services vary by region, and fans should monitor official platform schedules for updates.

What Happens Next

Before the main series begins in January, a separate short anime series is scheduled to premiere on November 4, 2026. These shorts will air Wednesdays at 11:56 p.m. as part of the TBS program "Yoru no Brunch." For those in Japan, an advance screening of the first two TV episodes will take place on December 6, 2026, at Ikebukuro HUMAX Cinemas.
