An official key visual art has been released for the upcoming Japanese romantic comedy anime series, "Karakai Jouzu no Takagi-san (Takagi-san, the Master of Teasing),"

The key visual art features the character designs for the main leads, Nishikata and Takagi, who seems to be engaging in the usual bout of teasing on their way to school.

The series, which is based on the manga series of the same name created by Souichirou Yamamoto, tells the story of Takagi, who has developed the habit of making fun of her seatmate, Nishikata. Having had enough of the teasing, Nishikata eventually vows to someday turn the tables and get back at Takagi.
