A manga adaptation by Suzu Yūki launched on the Manga UP! service in January 2022. Square Enix Manga & Books licensed the manga.

The anime adaptation's first season premiered on Tokyo MX in January 2023. The series also aired on BS NTV and AT-X. Crunchyroll streamed the anime as it aired. Kenichi Imaizumi (Brynhildr in the Darkness, third Kingdom season) supervised the first season at project No.9, and Li Hua Wang (name romanization not confirmed) directed the season.

The anime's second season will premiere on April 3 on the Tokyo MX channel at 10:30 p.m. JST (9:30 a.m. EDT), and on BS NTV on April 4 at 24:00 JST (effectively, April 5 at 12 midnight JST). The anime will also stream simultaneously on the ABEMA and d Anime Store streaming services. Chihiro Kumano (The Mononoke Lecture Logs of Chuzenji-sensei) is directing the second season at project No.9, taking over from Li Hua Wang.
