In a few months, publisher Crunchyroll will begin the German DVD and Blu-ray release of the anime adaptation of “Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian”. In keeping with this, the design of the limited edition has now been presented.
Release from February 2026
The first volume is expected to go on sale on February 6, 2026 as a limited edition. This includes the first six episodes with German and Japanese dubbing. As an extra there is a collector’s slipcase, three art cards, a double-sided poster, a standee, promo videos as well as the openings and endings as a clean version.
The Doga Kobo studio was responsible for the production of the twelve-part RomCom series, which ran in Japan in the summer season of 2024, with Ryouta Itou (“Shikimori’s Not Just a Cutie”) directing and writing the script.
The streaming service Crunchyroll already offers all episodes of “Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian” with a German language version and the original sound on demand. A second season will start later in 2026.

Action:
Alya, an elegant half-Russian with silver hair, is considered the aloof top of her class and constantly reprimands her neighbor at the bench, Kuze Masachika.
But she secretly confesses her feelings to him in Russian – convinced that he doesn’t understand a word. Kuze knows the language and just acts as if he doesn’t know anything.
