The anime adaptation of A Girl & Her Guard Dog has received a key visual featuring male protagonist Keiya Uto. A September 28 premiere date and more cast members were also revealed.
The newly announced voice actors are Junya Enoki as Mikio Tanuki and Mai Nakahara as Kaori Sekiya.
A Girl & Her Guard Dog is based on Hatsuharu‘s Kodansha-published manga series, which Kodansha describes as:
Isaku never asked to be the daughter of a yakuza boss, but when her parents died in a car accident when she was 5, her gangster grandfather took her in and raised her as part of the clan. After years of being avoided by her schoolmates because of her family ties, Isaku is finally ready to make her high-school debut, live a normal life, and maybe even find love…until loyal family servant and Isaku’s dedicated guardian, 26-year-old Keiya, enters high school right alongside her and vows to protect her from all of the above! Now she’s got a chain-smoking, pistol-wielding knight-in-shining(?)-armor to deal with, and navigating high school besides? What’s a young lady to do?!
Yoshihiro Takamoto (VAZZROCK THE ANIMATION) is directing the TV anime at Project No.9 with Aya Satsuki (Ippon! Again) as series composer and Yukiko Ban (Yowamushi Pedal: Limit Break) as character designer.
Akari Kitou is voicing main heroine Isaku Senagaki while Yuuichirou Umehara is voicing Keiya.
The manga began in 2018 and will release its ninth tankoubon volume on September 13 this year. It is serialized in Bessatsu Friend and published under the Kodansha Comics Bessatsu Friend label.
