Alongside a new anime season started this week, the sakura trees in Japan also finally bloomed! To celebrate the change of seasons, the official Twitter account for the fictional LycoReco Café from the Lycoris Recoil anime released a new visual of Chisato and Takina enjoying their time sitting under a blooming cherry blossom tree.
Alongside the visual, the account also did a little bit of role-play with the characters:
“We went in the early morning to see the sakura blooming, but Chisato, who suggested the idea, fell asleep…
-Takina”
“Ahhh!I told you to keep that a secret!You’re so mean Takina!
-Chisato”
Shingo Adachi directed the Lycoris Recoil anime, with character designs from Imigimuru, story by Spider LIly and Asaura (Ben-To manga) and A-1 Pictures handling the animation production. The anime aired from July to September 2022. A new anime in the series was announced in February 2023 to be in production.Crunchyroll streams the series in both sub and dub formats, and describes the anime:
For these peaceful days――there’s a secret behind it all. 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. The free-spirited and optimistic pacifist, Chisato. And the cool-headed and efficient Takina. The chaotic everyday lives of this mismatched duo begin!
