The first promotion video has been revealed for upcoming original TV anime Lycoris Recoil, which is scheduled to air in July 2022.
The anime is produced by animation studio A-1 Pictures and directed by Shingo Adachi (Sword Art Online). The original concept was written by Spider Lily, with series composition by Asaura.
The fantasy/slice-of-life series takes place in a Japanese-style café called 「リコリコ」 (Romaji: Ricorico), located in downtown Tokyo.
In addition to the usual café duties like brewing coffee and making desserts, the girls find themselves doing all sorts of odd jobs such as babysitting, exterminating zombies, and defeating giant monsters!
The cast features a variety of characters with distinct personalities. There's the smiley and outgoing Chisato, the cool and serious Takina, the can't-wait-to-get-married Mizuki, and the lazy Kurumi. They are managed by store owner Mika.
