The anime will premiere on Thursday on the TOKYO MX, Yomiuri TV, and BS Asahi channels. The anime's staff had first announced that it would premiere in October. The anime's first two episodes had an advance screening in Japan on September 3 at the United Cinemas Toyosu in Tokyo.

Kodansha USA Publishing is releasing the manga in English digitally, and it describes the series:

Isaku never asked to be the daughter of a yakuza boss, but when her parents died in a car accident when she was 5, her gangster grandfather took her in and raised her as part of the clan. After years of being avoided by her schoolmates because of her family ties, Isaku is finally ready to make her high-school debut, live a normal life, and maybe even find love...until loyal family servant and Isaku's dedicated guardian, 26-year-old Keiya, enters high school right alongside her and vows to protect her from all of the above! Now she's got a chain-smoking, pistol-wielding knight-in-shining(?)-armor to deal with, and navigating high school besides? What's a young lady to do?!

The anime stars:

  • Akari Kitō as Isaku Senagaki
  • Yuichiro Umehara as Keiya Utō
