The official Twitter account for the television anime of Yu Muraoka‘s “Ippon” Again! (Mō Ippon!) manga revealed three additional cast members for the anime on Monday. The cast members are all members of the Hakata Minami High School Judo Club, and will appear in the anime’s eighth episode on February 26.

The new cast members include Yuki Yomichi as Sachi Minato (pictured above), Ai Kakuma as Natsu Umehara (pictured below, right), and Ikumi Hasegawa as Kotoko Nogisaki (pictured below, left).

The series premiered on TV Tokyo on January 8 before airing on TV Osaka, TV Setouchi, and BS TV Tokyo. HIDIVE streams the anime as it airs in Japan.

The anime’s main cast includes:
Ken Ogiwara (episode director on Joran: The Princess of Snow and Blood, Shadows House) is directing the anime at BAKKEN RECORD, and Aya Satsuki (SSSS.GRIDMAN ANOTHER LOAD novel, My Master Has No Tail) is in charge of the series scripts. Airi Takekawa (Joran: The Princess of Snow and Blood sub-character design) is designing the characters and serving as chief animation director.

The manga follows Michi Sonoda, who had planned to quit judo after her final tournament in junior high. However, her best friend Sanae Takigawa invites her to continue judo in high school.
