An anime adaptation has been announced for the light novel Fired? But I Maintain All the Software! A visual was revealed. No further information such as the studio, staff, cast, and release date, has been released.
Yuki Kashirome writes the Fired? But I Maintain All the Software! light novel with illustrations done by Icchi. It was initially launched as a web novel on the Shosetsuka ni Naro website from November 2020 to July 2022. Shufu to Seikatsu Sha’s PASH Books acquired the title in May 2021 and a manga adaptation illustrated by Io began serialization on Shufu to Seikatsu Sha’s Comic PASH! website in August 2022.
There are currently four volumes for the light novel. The manga also has four volumes in circulation, with the fifth volume set to release on June 5. Both the light novel and manga are available in English at J-Novel. They describe the former as follows:
Once the sole engineer maintaining the systems at her company, Ai Sato is laid off without warning one day. (Apparently, the new CEO doesn’t approve of cosplaying at work… Rude!) Moping won’t pay the bills, so Ai sets out to find a new job—only to bump into an old friend, Kenta Suzuki, who just so happens to need a business partner. Together, they’ll run a coding school for people truly in need. Their first student is of course…a salaryman hoping to improve his relationship with his family? Each new recruit that follows seems to be struggling under modern expectations: from a harried woman determined to prove her worth at work, to a jobless hopeful who wants to fulfill his mother’s dream, and more. If Ai wants to bring out their best, she’ll need to teach them a lesson in not just coding skills but also how to build up their confidence! The manga adaptation is also available at J-Novel Club!
