A light novel adaptation was also announced, titled Lycoris Recoil: Ordinary Days. The original anime story writer is writing the spin-off novel, with illustrations by the anime’s character designer Imigimuru. A-1 Pictures is producing the currently ongoing Lycoris Recoil anime, with Shingo Adachi as the director. The anime was voted as the best of the week immediately after its premiere, and has remained on top for most of the weeks since (only fell from the top once, when it was overtaken by Uncle From Another World and Overlord IV). Crunchyroll is streaming it, and they describe the story:
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!\
