Sore ga Seiyū! is set to premiere on July 7 in Japan.
Additional cast include: Aoi Konno.

Asano has worked on other various manga such as Partner, Hiyoko no Arukikata, and Zettai Karen Children's Oboro Kashiwagi, among many others.
When asked if Asano herself will voice a character in Sore ga Seiyū!, she replied that she could not say if she would or not. However, she added that fans would probably understand what she is talking about when they see a certain scene within the anime.
