Of course, staff from the original anime will take part in this miniseries. Shingo Adachi will oversee the project along with character designer Imigimuru. So far, no firm release window has been given for this new miniseries, but Lycoris Recoil fans are willing to wait however long for the comeback.
After all, it has been a hot minute since fans were given an update on the IP. Lycoris Recoil premiered in July 2022 to quick acclaim, and A-1 Pictures thrived under the praise. Despite intense interest, no word was ever given on a second season, so this Lycoris Recoil miniseries is much appreciated. If you haven't checked out the series yet, you can find Lycoris Recoil streaming on Crunchyroll right now, so you read up on its synopsis below for all the details you may want:
"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."
