Yamamoto Junichi (Armor Shop for Ladies & Gentlemen, More Than a Married Couple, But not Lovers, Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke’s Mansion) directs the anime at Typhoon Graphics. The anime is an adaptation of the Haigakura manga by Takayama Shinobu, which began serialisation in 2008 in Ichijinsha’s Zero-Sum Ward magazine. The magazine ceased publication in 2015, and the manga was moved to Zero-Sum Online. Ichijinsha has since published 16 volumes, the latest released in August 2023.
The manga is set in a secluded realm where deities and mortals dwell. A youth named Ichiyou sets out to capture the gods who have fled and scattered all over the realm. With the subordinate god Tenkou, Ichiyou seeks the four evil gods holding the key to the realm’s collapse.
