A new short-form anime series previously landed as part of the fall 2018 season with Otona no Bōguya-san. It didn’t get much in the way of overseas attention with no real pickups so it flew under the radar while it ran. The property ended up getting three new episodes that later arrived on the d Animate Store service with them landing on March 6th, 13th, and 20th, 2019.
Crunchyroll picked it up and the new season that got underway over the past weekend but they weren’t sure when they were going to add the first season. That’s now been set as the full twelve-episode run of the original broadcast run have been added as of last night. It looks like it doesn’t include the three OVAs that were released later in 2019 so we’re hopeful that they’ll be out sometime in the future.
The seasons are released under the name Armor Shop for Ladies & Gentlemen II where availability is set for viewers in North America, Central America, South America, Europe, Africa, Oceania, the Middle East, and CIS.
The series was directed by Junichi Yamamoto who worked on the scripts with Domeshi. Kosuke Iwanaga served as the character designer with animation production handled by Imagica Imageworks.
