Wash It All Away（綺麗にしてもらえますか。）is almost ready to open its doors. The new TV anime set in the seaside hot spring town of Atami has dropped a fresh key visual and its first full trailer, along with a complete broadcast schedule, streaming plans, opening and ending theme details, six newly announced supporting cast members, and even a pre-broadcast livestream. If you’ve been waiting to know exactly when and where to watch Wakana’s laundry-life story, this guide pulls everything together in one place.
Wash It All Away Turns Atami’s Everyday Laundry Life Into Anime
Based on Mitsuru Hattori’s slice-of-life manga Wash It All Away（綺麗にしてもらえますか。）, the series follows Wakana Kinme, a cheerful young woman with no memories of her life before opening Kinme Cleaning in the coastal resort town of Atami. There, she spends her days restoring customers’ clothes and precious items, quietly protecting the memories tied to them while enjoying hot springs and the easygoing pace of seaside life. Studio Okuruto Noboru animates the TV adaptation with director Kenta Onishi and series composition by Toko Machida.
New Key Visual Gathers the Cast in Front of Kinme Cleaning
The newly released key visual places Wakana and the main cast in front of the Kinme Cleaning storefront, capturing the warm, slightly nostalgic mood of a small-town shopping street in Atami. Soft afternoon light, hints of the nearby hot springs and the suggestion of the harbor just beyond the buildings make it clear that this is a story about daily life in a seaside town rather than a high-tension action series.
Main Trailer Previews Voices, Atami’s Atmosphere and “Kirei.”
The first main trailer finally lets fans hear Shuichiro Umeda as high schooler Kyusho Ishimochi and Konomi Inagaki as curious grade-schooler Nairo Katakuchi, alongside Sayumi Suzushiro as Wakana. Their performances match the manga’s gentle tone, shifting easily between quiet conversation and small emotional spikes. The video also previews the opening theme song “Kirei.” by singer Yu. (Yuu.), written and composed by Jin, over shots of sunlit laundromats, shopping streets and the blue Atami coastline.
Where and When Wash It All Away Airs on Japanese TV and Streams Online
Wash It All Away will begin airing in Japan on January 5, 2026. The series will broadcast on TOKYO MX, ABC TV, SBS, BS Asahi and AT-X in late-night slots, with AT-X and TOKYO MX kicking off the run on January 5, followed by BS Asahi on January 9 and SBS on January 10. The exact times are listed as Japanese late-night hours, so overseas viewers should remember that some broadcasts technically fall after midnight on the following calendar day.
For streaming, d Anime Store will host an early simulcast starting January 5, with additional services in Japan set to stream the show later on. Overseas streaming platforms have not yet been formally announced, so international viewers should keep an eye on official channels before Winter 2026 begins.
Six Supporting Characters Bring More Color to Wakana’s Seaside World
Alongside Wakana, the new trailer highlights six supporting characters whose daily lives intersect at Kinme Cleaning. Kyusho Ishimochi is a local high schooler who visits the shop in place of his mother, while Nairo Katakuchi is a talkative neighbor kid who fell in love with the job after a work-experience visit. Twins Kuriru and Moruda Wakasagi attend school with Kyusho and add sibling chaos to his days, and Asami Yagara is a regular customer who is close to Wakana even outside the shop. Finally, Aji is both Wakana’s landlord and another frequent visitor who cares deeply about the shop and the town.
They’re voiced by Shuichiro Umeda (Kyusho), Konomi Inagaki (Nairo), Yoshino Aoyama (Kuriru), Kento Shiraishi (Moruda), Ami Koshimizu (Asami) and Wasabi Mizuta (Aji) — a line-up that leans into relaxed, expressive performances rather than big, booming shouts.
Theme Songs “Kirei.” and “Wakaba no Koro” Capture Gentle Early-Summer Vibes
The opening, “Kirei.” by Yu., aims to bottle the clear air of Atami’s sea and the small acts of kindness that fill everyday life. Jin’s lyrics and composition play with the different shades of the word “kirei” in Japanese: clean, beautiful, and emotionally “put in order.” It feels like a song you might hear drifting out of a laundromat at closing time.
The ending, “Wakaba no Koro” by Natsumi Kiyoura, is described as a song about early summer, youthful moments and a single page of someone’s life. Arranger Katsutoshi Kitagawa builds the track around soft acoustic guitar and strings, with warm woodwinds joining partway through. Together, the OP and ED frame the anime as a gentle, memory-tinted slice-of-life series that you watch to unwind at the end of the day.
Pre-Broadcast Livestream Lets Fans Meet the Lead Duo Before Episode 1
To celebrate the premiere, a special livestream titled “Kinishite” Pre-Broadcast Stream ~Tonight We’re All Merry Cleaning!~ is scheduled for December 18, 2025 at 21:00 JST. Sayumi Suzushiro (Wakana Kinme) and Shuichiro Umeda (Kyusho Ishimochi) will appear to talk about the anime, the recording sessions and what they love about Atami and Kinme Cleaning. Details and links will be shared via the official site and the X account @kinishite_anime (hashtag #きにして), so fans who want to be there from the very first wash cycle should mark their calendars.
