This Monster Wants to Eat Me Trailer Reveals October 2025 Premiere
A trailer for the yuri anime This Monster Wants to Eat Me has been released, previewing more of its supernatural side and revealing an October 2025 premiere window.
It was also announced that Yui Ishikawa and Ai Fairouz will be part of the cast as Shiori Omi and Miko Yashiro, respectively. Character visuals for them, and Reina Ueda‘s Hinako Yaotose, were released as well.
This Monster Wants To Eat Me is based on the manga by Sai Naekawa, which began serialized in KADOKAWA’s Dengeki Maoh in October 2020 and has nine tankoubon volumes as of October 2024. Yen Press describes the story as:
Hinako, a high school student with a dark past, lives alone in a town by the sea. Haunted by a constant sensation of drowning, she can barely go through the motions of her tedious life…until the day a monster tries to eat her! After passing out in the struggle, she awakens to find she’s been rescued by a beautiful mermaid. However, salvation comes at a cost—the mermaid’s protection will last only until Hinako has matured into the perfect meal! Hinako’s first instinct isn’t to run or scream, though, and an unlikely relationship between monster and prey unfolds… “I’ve come to devour you.”
If you’re wondering what other dark yuri anime are coming out, an adaptation of the dark fantasy yuri manga I Want to Love You Till Your Dying Day was very recently announced with a pilot film.
