To celebrate Good Friends Day on November 10, the official Lycoris Recoil accounts released a brand-new illustration featuring the beloved characters Chisato and Takina. As previously announced, a “new anime” project is currently in development, though its format and further details have yet to be revealed.
New Illustration:
Lycoris Recoil, the original anime, premiered in the Summer 2022 anime season and aired for 13 episodes. It was streamed overseas on Crunchyroll and Bilibili.
In February 2023, a new anime project for Lycoris Recoil was announced. A new original short anime series from the world of Lycoris Recoil, titled Lycoris Recoil: Friends Are Thieves of Time, premiered on April 16 this year.
Crunchyroll describes the story as follows:
For these peaceful days――there’s a secret behind it all. A secret organization that prevents crimes: “DA – Direct Attack”. And their group of all-girl agents: “Lycoris”. This peaceful everyday life is all thanks to these young girls. The elite Chisato Nishikigi is the strongest Lycoris agent of all time. Alongside is Takina Inoue, the talented but mysterious Lycoris. They work together at one of its branches–Café LycoReco. Here, the orders this café takes range from coffee and sweets to childcare, shopping, teaching Japanese to foreign students, etc. It’s mostly tasks unbefitting of Lycoris. The free-spirited and optimistic pacifist, Chisato. And the cool-headed and efficient Takina. The chaotic everyday lives of this mismatched duo begin!
