It has been reported that there are plans for a KARA anime!
Girl group KARA will be the basis of a Japanese anime titled ‘KARA the Animation (working title)’ and it is expected to air in early 2013. The show will depict the 5 beautiful ladies of KARA and the characters will be based on the individual personality and image of the members.
A member at the production company shared, “Like KARA’s, whose name is synonymous with ‘sweet melody’, the anime will show a ‘sweet story’. We are sure this show will please fans of KARA as well as anime fans in general.”
After ‘KARA the Animation’ airs in Japan, it is planned to air in Korea at a later date as well.

Each group member will provide the voices for the animated versions of themselves, and so the series will air with Korean dialogue and will have Japanese subtitles. The series will mark each members' voice-acting debut, and the group will also provide the show's theme song.
The reason for the new series is to provide a way for Kara to reach out to fans in Japan, even though the members do not get many chances to visit Japan. Gyuri herself is a well-known fan of manga such as One Piece and anime. Her own mother was a voice actress, so she said that she and her mother were overjoyed at her first opportunity to voice-act.
An advanced preview of the show will premiere during the group's first performance at the Tokyo Dome stadium on January 6. The show will air in both South Korea and Japan. It is not yet announced if the show will be produced by a Japanese or a South Korean animation studio.
