After dropping The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten creditless opening animation last week, Japanese animation studio Project No. 9 is back this week with a second creditless animation segment.
This time it’s The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten creditless ending animation.
An ED animation that also features the anime’s ending theme song, the absolutely cutest song — a cover of the Japanese punk rock song ‘Chiisana Koi no Uta‘ performed by Mahiru voice actress Manaka Iwami.
‘Chiisana Koi no Uta‘ (aka 小さな恋のうた · in Japanese and ‘Small Love Song‘ in English), was released back in 2001 on the punk rock band Mongol800‘s second studio album Message.
It was an album that received little attention from the commercial music world, but still managed to sell more than two million copies despite that and then went on to become a punk rock classic in Japan.
And while the band’s original version of the song is a banging punk rock song that sticks in your head, Manaka Iwami’s ‘Chiisana Koi no Uta‘ is as addictive as it really is the sweetest little love song, with her voice as cute as a child’s.
The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten anime is based on the light novels written by Saekisan and illustrated by Hanekoto, and is published by Yen Press in English.
The already popular anime is currently being streamed by Crunchyroll in some regions, with the second episode coming out on the streaming platform later on today.
Watch the just released The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten creditless ending animation, and listen to Manaka Iwami’s version of the song in it as well as on the Spotify player down below.
