AnimeTV is proud to present Day 2 in its exclusive series of light novel author comments on YOUR FORMA. Today, we hear from Tōru Shirogane, the creative mind behind The Kept Man of the Princess Knight.
Tōru Shirogane Comment:
Through the unique reinterpretation and reconfiguration that only anime can offer—and with the addition of sound and visuals—the original sci-fi setting and story of Your Forma have been reborn into something entirely new.
The emotional tension between Echika and Harold as partners is deeply stirring, and the story’s strength as a mystery is equally compelling.
Whether you’re new to the series or already familiar with it, watching the anime will almost certainly make you want to dive into the original novels as well.
AnimeTV will continue to bring you daily perspectives from prominent authors who have been moved and inspired by YOUR FORMA. Be sure to check back tomorrow for more exclusive commentary.

Official synopsis:
In 1992, a pandemic of viral encephalitis shook the world. The medical technology that saved humanity evolved into “Your Forma”—an invasive information device implanted into the brain. In this world where every sight, sound, and even emotion is recorded, investigating major crimes means diving into the collective data, a job reserved for special detectives called “Electronic Investigator.”
Echika Hieda, a prodigious “Electronic Investigator” assigned at an astonishingly young age, stands isolated by her exceptional talent. Her newly assigned partner is Harold, a blonde, blue-eyed humanoid “Amicus.” Together, this unrivaled duo will expose every hidden secret.
