Adult anime streamer OceanVeil will stream the first episode of the Ichigo Aika: Strawberry Elegy anime adaptation on December 12 at 12 AM PST/PDT, ahead of the show’s January 2026 broadcast start.
The English-subtitled premiere will be “completely uncensored and unedited.”
Here’s the anime’s synopsis:
“Hey, nice to meet ya~♪”
…She sounded dumb. That cute first impression was shattered instantly.
After Kota’s father remarried, the girl who became his stepsister turned out to be a super-bratty, trend-obsessed gyaru…?! Whenever our parents are away, Kota’s life is flipped upside down by Aika’s free-spirited chaos. Aika plays the “perfect daughter” in front of their parents, but when left on her own, she’s a full-blown teenage disaster.
And stuck with her is Kota—nit-picky, straight-laced, and constantly fed up.
They can’t even last three seconds in the same room without trading insults—witness the birth of the worst brother-sister relationship ever!
… But maybe—just maybe—Kota’s strict, responsible nature is exactly what Aika needs…?!
Ichigo Aika: Strawberry Elegy is based on the erotic stepsibling romance manga written by Hirafumi and drawn by Yagi Shinba. It’s an Anime Festa Original like Adam’s Sweet Agony and Hands off: Sawaranaide Kotesashi-kun!, which are also on OceanVeil.
