My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999, the Madhouse-produced romantic comedy anime, arrives on Netflix India on June 15 with 13 episodes.
Netflix India will begin streaming My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999 on June 15, bringing the acclaimed 13-episode romantic comedy anime to one of the country's largest streaming platforms. The series, produced by Madhouse, originally aired in Japan in April 2023.
Based on Mashiro's manga Loving Yamada at LV999!, published by Kadokawa, the anime follows Akane Kinoshita, a young woman reeling from a breakup after her boyfriend leaves her for another girl. She finds an unexpected connection with a socially awkward but talented gamer known as Yamada through an online game, and their chance meeting at an offline event sets the stage for an endearing romance. The series blends gaming culture with genuine emotional beats, anchored by strong comedic timing and a refreshingly grounded lead duo.
Inori Minase voices Akane, while Koki Uchiyama brings Yamada to life. Supporting cast members include Natsuki Hanae and Saori Onishi. The show runs 13 episodes at roughly 24 minutes each, making it a comfortable single-season binge.
Madhouse handled animation production, with Morio Asaka directing and Yasuhiro Nakanishi on series composition. Kunihiko Hamada designed the characters, and the soundtrack features work from Mito of the band Clammbon alongside DÉ DÉ MOUSE. The opening theme, "Gradation feat. Yūho Kitazawa" by KANA-BOON, became a fan favorite during the show's original broadcast run across Tokyo MX, Tochigi TV, Gunma TV, and BS11.
Critically, the series has performed well. It holds a 7.6 rating on IMDb from over 6,000 user ratings, and an 89% score on JustWatch aggregated from 346 reviews. The source manga itself won a Tsutaya Comic Award, cementing its popularity before the anime adaptation even aired.
Indian anime fans have had access to the series through Crunchyroll since its original simulcast, with an English dub that premiered in August 2023 and a Hindi dub that launched in November 2023. The show is also available via the Crunchyroll Amazon Channel and the Animax Amazon Channel through Prime Video, as well as on Sony LIV.
Netflix India's addition on June 15 significantly expands the show's reach. Netflix remains one of the most widely subscribed streaming services in the country, and its library additions often introduce anime titles to audiences beyond the dedicated anime-viewing community. Both English and Japanese audio tracks will be available with closed captions.
The arrival on Netflix India is notable because it places a well-regarded romantic comedy anime on a platform with massive mainstream penetration. Shows like this character-driven, accessible, and not reliant on prior franchise knowledge tend to perform well with Netflix's broader subscriber base. For viewers who missed the Crunchyroll simulcast or prefer Netflix's interface and pricing, June 15 marks a convenient entry point into one of 2023's most charming romance anime.
With all 13 episodes available from day one, the series is positioned as an easy weekend binge for anyone looking for a heartfelt, gaming-flavored love story.
