What Makes See You Tomorrow at the Food Court Special
This isn’t your typical high school romance anime, and that’s exactly what makes it so compelling! The story centers around Wada, an honor student who keeps to herself and maintains an air of mystery, and Yamamoto, an intimidating fashionista with dyed blonde hair and a shortened skirt.
On the surface, these two couldn’t be more different, but their daily meetings at the food court become the one place where they can truly be themselves. It’s a beautifully simple premise that explores how genuine connections can form in the most unexpected places, and how food courts – those bustling, casual spaces – can become sanctuaries for authentic human connection.
See You Tomorrow at the Food Court Manga Background
Shinichirō Nariie launched this heartwarming manga on the Comic Newtype site back in March 2020. The series had an interesting publishing journey, going on hiatus in January 2021 before resuming in September 2022. Kadokawa published the manga’s most recent 23rd chapter on December 13, with the second compiled volume titled Food Court de, Mata Ashita. Season 2 shipping on March 31.

What’s particularly exciting about this adaptation is the creative team behind it. Kazuomi Koga’s direction on series like Rent-A-Girlfriend and Kubo Won’t Let Me Be Invisible shows he understands how to handle intimate, character-focused stories. Meanwhile, Jukki Hanada’s script supervision brings experience from beloved series like Sound! Euphonium and Love Live!, proving he knows how to craft emotionally resonant narratives about friendship and personal growth.
The fact that the main voice actresses are performing the ending theme together feels like the perfect creative choice for a story about two very different people finding common ground. “Tonari Awase” (Side by Side) isn’t just a song title – it’s the entire emotional core of what this series represents.
With only six episodes, this adaptation has the opportunity to be a perfectly crafted, focused experience that doesn’t overstay its welcome. Sometimes the most powerful stories are the ones that know exactly what they want to say and say it beautifully within a compact timeframe.

With only six episodes, this adaptation is taking a focused approach to See You Tomorrow at the Food Court. Given that the manga currently has 23 chapters across two volumes, the anime will likely adapt a specific arc or portion of the story rather than trying to cram everything in. This shorter format often allows for more detailed character development and higher animation quality per episode, which could be perfect for such an intimate, character-driven story about Wada and Yamamoto’s relationship.
There’s been no official announcement about an English dub for See You Tomorrow at the Food Court yet. Given that it’s a 6-episode series from a smaller production committee and the focus on the Japanese cast performing the ending theme, it’s possible this series will remain subtitle-only. However, AnimeKing will keep readers updated if any English dub plans are announced by Crunchyroll or the production committee.
