The upcoming 2.5 Jigen no Ririsa: Tenshitachi no Stage mobile game will feature the voice of Ikumi Hasegawa as Eri, a cosplayer and supporting character from the 2.5 Dimensional Seduction manga who has a very close relationship with the manga club’s advisor Mayuri Hanyu (M・A・O).
It hasn’t been announced yet if Eri will appear in the upcoming anime adaptation, which premieres in Japan on July 5 JST. The game will be released sometime this year.
The Shueisha-published 2.5 Dimensional Seduction manga by Yu Hashimoto is a cosplay-themed romantic comedy following the members of a high school manga club. The series began serialization on Shonen Jump+ in 2019 and will release its 20th tankoubon volume in July 2024. Seven Seas Entertainment describes the plot as:
“I have no interest in real girls!” So claims Okumura, the president of the school’s manga club. He’s your typical otaku, obsessed with a sexy (fictional) 2D manga character known as Liliel. Then the new school year starts, and a (real!) 3D girl named Lilysa whose passion is cosplay joins the club. Lilysa convinces Okumura to become her photographer–and guess who her favorite manga character is? Not only that, but Lilysa is into modeling the fetishy stuff! The boundaries between 2D and 3D start to blur as this hot-blooded romantic comedy unfolds.
Tenshitachi no Stage will include an original story titled “2.5 Jigen no Mayuri” (“Mayuri of the 2.5 Dimension”), which will cover Mayuri’s past.
