To date, the anime has two episodes and premiered last January 13th. The animation is based on a dark, revenge fantasy light novel written by Rui Tsukiyo and illustrated by Shiokonbu. The novel began serialization online on December 2016 n the user-generated novel publishing website Shosetsuka ni Naro, but was later acquired Kadokawa Shoten.
