Lycoris Recoil will be directed by Sword Art Online character designer Shingo Adachi in his first directorial work. Novelist Asaura (Shousetsu Knights of Sidonia: Kitto Arifureta Koi) is writing the anime’s screenplay while artist Imigimuru (This Art Club Has a Problem!) is handling character designs. A-1 Pictures is in charge of animation production. 

ALCATOROCK designer Kimiki Onai is designing the uniforms of the characters, as seen in this new visual and previous versions of it. Onai has designed costumes for many idol groups such as Nogizaka46 and Sakurazaka46.

Lycoris Recoil is currently being promoted in Aniplex’s booth at AnimeJapan 2022. In addition to promoting the visuals and anime via flyers, the event will also host a staff talk show stage event ahead of its premiere. Attendees can find out about their content by clicking the link in the tweet, as well as information on how to participate in the stage event. 

Aniplex of America describes the anime as:

A café serving delicious coffee, super sweet treats and… more!?

From deliveries, to chaperoning, to getting rid of zombies, and fighting a giant monster??

Just stop by for a consultation!

No matter the order, leave it to us!
