A first teaser PV has been released for the upcoming short anime 'Dark Summoner to Dekiteiru' (Japanese: 'Dark Summoner to Dekiteiru'). The roughly 30-second clip offers initial glimpses into the visual adaptation of this fantasy romantic comedy material and introduces the three main characters: Roni, Amona, and the servant demon Imp.
The story revolves around the dutiful priest Roni and the demon summoner Amona, who is half-human, half-beast ('亜人'). Although the two are considered an unlikely pair, they unexpectedly grow close after their first adventure together—kicking off a fast-paced relationship comedy with an erotic twist. In the source material, the same-named web manga series by Shaoh, the interaction between the uninhibited Amona and the stiff Roni provides much of the humor. The trio is completed by Imp, a demon who appears without being summoned and constantly stirs things up between them.
The anime is directed by Seiya Miyajima (known for 'GANSO! BanG Dream Chan' among others) at Studio AtoriE. The screenplay is also by Miyajima, with character design and overall animation direction by Takahiro Sasaki. Art direction is handled by Yoichiro Yamamoto, color design by Daiki Ura (Deffer), cinematography by Yu Ozu, and editing by Toma Hayashima. Producers are Yasuhiro Aoki and Kota Hashiguchi. The short anime is produced under the Deregula label of the company WWWave (formerly known for titles like 'Kanojo no Tomodachi').
The main roles are voiced by Rei Takano as Amona, Yuki Nishiyama as Roni, and Senmai Hodentei as Imp. The official website and Twitter account of the anime first released the teaser PV on July 17, 2026, and simultaneously launched a summer postcard giveaway: illustrator Hisui Genshi contributed a special illustration that will be raffled off as a postcard. Previously, a first key visual had been released in June, showing the characters in a tense yet familiar pose.
The anime is scheduled for October 2026 and will air as a short anime (presumably about five minutes per episode) on Japanese television and via streaming services. The underlying manga series by Shaoh began in 2021 on the 'Niconico Manga' portal under Kadokawa's Dra Dra Sharp# label and now comprises seven compiled volumes (as of March 2026).
