The Shikimori’s Not Just a Cutie anime has received its first trailer. The PV previews the central premise of the romantic comedy, which involves its titular character having both a cute and cool side, the latter of which her boyfriend particularly loves.

Kodansha Comics describes the story as:
Shikimori seems like the perfect girlfriend: cute, fun to be around, sweet when she wants to be… but she has a cool dark side that comes out under the right circumstances. And her boyfriend Izumi loves to be around when that happens! A fun and funny high school romance with a sassy twist perfect for fans of Nagatoro-san and Komi Can’t Communicate!
