Oh, young high school love.

It’s all about that certain crush that makes you fall head over heels in love. And don’t forget the mistaken identity.

The new series The Guy She Was Interested in Wasn’t a Guy At All is one of the more anticipated romantic comedy anime series coming soon to Crunchyroll.

At the Crunchyroll event at Anime Expo 2026, Dave Grohl appeared via video message to announce that Nirvana’s “Breed” will be the opening theme song for the anime adaptation.

Here’s the official synopsis:

Fashionable and upbeat high schooler Aya loves listening to rock, but no one else seems to share her interest…until she meets a cool, stylish employee at a CD shop. Dressed in black from head to toe, he has this air of mystery about him, and his taste in music is impeccable. Aya falls hard for him—not knowing her crush is actually her female classmate Mitsuki. For her part, Mitsuki generally keeps to herself and avoids standing out at school. But given that she sits right next to Aya, Mitsuki’s all too aware of the other girl’s feelings, and she’s afraid to reveal the truth. So why does she find herself talking with Aya more and more…?

The Guy She Was Interested in Wasn’t a Guy at All is also known as the Green Yuri due to the green accent color in the manga series. The yuri manga is written and illustrated by Sumiko Arai, which had a weekly run on Twitter before being serialized on Pixiv Comic in 2023. It was later published in print by Media Factory.
