The original anime “Lycoris Recoil” began broadcasting on Japanese television on July 2, 2022. The series consisted of a total of 13 episodes and its last episode was broadcast in Japan on September 24, 2022. The animation studio A-1 Pictures was in charge of its production and it was transmitted legally and simultaneously through the Crunchyroll platform, which made an English dubbing for the anime.
In February 2023, the official media of the original anime “Lycoris Recoil” announced the production of a new anime project for the series. Despite this exciting announcement, not much information was released at the time about the long-awaited sequel, and despite some rumors about a movie, there is still no official information to verify the rumor that started circulating on the internet.
“Lycoris Recoil” presents a fascinating tale that plunges us into the intriguing world of Japan, where crime and terror have been kept at bay thanks to the clandestine operations of the “Direct Attack” (DA) syndicate. In this universe, orphan girls are trained as lethal assassins under the “Lycoris” program, playing a crucial role in preserving the peace.
Our protagonist, Takina Inoue, stands out as an exceptional Lycoris, imbued with determination and perfectionism. However, an act of insubordination during a hostage situation relegates her from the DA and leads her to an unexpected new destination: LycoReco, a coffee shop that serves as a cover for less conventional operations.
At this new location, Takina meets her partner, Chisato Nishikigi, a Lycoris prodigy known for her prowess, but who seems surprisingly disinterested in her duties. Chisato takes Takina on peculiar missions, where, puzzlingly, she demonstrates her skills without resorting to lethal violence. Between odd jobs and life lessons, Takina is torn between her desire to return to the DA and the perspective of Chisato, who is determined to show her that there is more to life than simply taking it away.
