A-1 Pictures’ Lycoris Recoil is an upcoming original Japanese anime television series. It is directed by Shingo Adachi and incorporates Imigimuru’s designs and Asaura’s series composition.
The new anime follows the “absurd daily lives” of Chisato Nishikigi and Takina Inoue. The story takes place in “Lyco-Reco” (Riko-Riko), a Japanese-style cafe in Tokyo’s old downtown district. The café accepts orders for everything from delectable coffee to sugary treats and sometimes a little bit extra like dealing with children, business negotiations, love counseling, one-on-one dealing with gigantic monsters, extortion of zombies, and more.
“No matter what you order, we’ll serve it up…!” is the tagline of this anime.
