Lycoris Recoil TV Anime Trailer Revealed, Animated by A-1 Pictures

The official trailer for Lycoris Recoil was revealed on Friday on Aniplex’s official Youtube channel.

In this Japanese-style café, coffee and sweets aren’t the only things being served. From business deals and love advice, all the way to exterminating monsters, the employees of Riko-Riko cafe will fulfill any order a customer has for them! Each character and their voice actors were revealed during the trailer including:

Chika Anzai, who will be the voice of Chisato Nishikigi—the uppity, always positive main character that’s easy to deceive. Anzai most recently starred as Tsubame Hattori in Orient and Chise Asukagawa in SSSS. Dynazenon.
