Glasses with a Chance of Delinquent TV anime revealed its first teaser visuals and main staff, with the series scheduled to premiere in 2027. The adaptation is based on Naruki's manga of the same name.

The Story

The series follows Momose, a girl determined to enjoy a peaceful high school life away from delinquents and troublemakers. When she meets Ichikura, an inconspicuous black-haired boy with glasses, he looks like a normal, nice guy. But it turns out that back in junior high he was a nefarious delinquent! He keeps assuring her that he's changed his ways — but he's still pretty quick to pick fights.

Penguin Random House has licensed the manga in English, which makes the series an easy recommendation for readers who like comedy-drama school romance with a hidden-past twist.

Staff and Visuals

Two teaser visuals were unveiled — one featuring the main duo of Momose and Ichikura, and a second bringing them together with Igarashi, Sakyo, Yachiyo, and Yataro. Makoto Hoshino is directing, with Megumi Shimizu handling series composition and Ruriko Watanabe serving as character designer. Animation production is being handled jointly by Studio flad and Wao World.
