Crunchyroll began streaming the Hindi dubs for the television anime adaptation of storyboarder and writer Taejun Pak and artist Jung Hyun Kim's Viral Hit webtoon series and the television anime of writer Kō Nigatsu and illustrator Sabamizore's The Many Sides of Voice Actor Radio (Seiyū Radio no Ura Omote) light novel series on Wednesday.

Viral Hit premiered in Japan on April 10. Crunchyroll is streaming the anime in India as it airs in Japan. It added the English dub of the anime on April 25.

Masakazu Hishida (Fairy Ranmaru, KING OF PRISM by PrettyRhythm) is directing the anime at Okuru to Noboru. Toshiya Ono (The Promised Neverland, Land of the Lustrous) is overseeing the series scripts, Satomi Miyazaki (Tomodachi Game) is designing the characters, and Yutaka Yamada (Tokyo Ghoul, Vinland Saga) is composing the music. Slow Curve is producing the series.

Webtoon describes the story:

Scrawny high school student Hobin Yu is probably the last guy you'd expect to star in a NewTube channel that revolves around fighting. But after following some advice from a mysterious NewTube channel, Hobin is soon knocking out guys stronger than him and raking in more money than he could have ever dreamed of. Can Hobin keep this up, or will he eventually meet his match?

The webtoon launched in Korean in November 2019. Webtoon began publishing the series in English in October 2020, and has published 215 chapters as of April 30. In Japan the webtoon runs on the LINE Manga app.

Taejun Pak is also the author of Lookism and is the CEO of PTJ Comics.

The Many Sides of Voice Actor Radio premiered on Tokyo MX and AT-X on April 10. Crunchyroll is streaming the series as it airs.

Hideki Tachibana (Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?, Chaos Dragon) is directing the anime at CONNECT, and Shoko Takimoto (ORESUKI: Are you the only one who loves me?, Chaos Dragon, Death March to The Parallel World Rhapsody) is designing the characters and serving as chief animation director. Keiichirō Ōchi (The Quintessential Quintuplets, Girlfriend, Girlfriend) is supervising the series scripts. Keiichi Hirokawa (MONACA) and Kuniyuki Takahashi (MONACA) are composing the music.

Miku Itō and Moe Toyota perform the anime's ending theme song "Stand By You!" as their respective characters Yasumi Utatane/Yumiko Satō and Yūhi Yūgure/Chika Watanabe. Itō also performs the opening theme song "Now On Air."

The story follows Yūhi and Yasumi, who are both voice actresses who attend the same high school and are in the same class. They host a radio program together. However, Yasumi is really Yumiko the gyaru (gal) in real life, while Yūhi is actually Chika the quiet girl. They are diametrically opposed in appearance and personality, and they get into fights when they are not on air.

Nogatsu and Sabamizore launched the ongoing novel series in February 2020. Umemi Makimoto launched a manga adaptation in Kadokawa's Dengeki Maoh magazine in March 2020, and ended it in July 2021. The third and final compiled book volume shipped in September 2021.
