The anime adaptation of the comedy manga series 'Ma no Mono-tachi wa Kuwadateru' (English title: 'The Demons Are Planning Something Good!') will premiere on Japanese television in 2027. This was announced by the production team on July 7, 2026. Alongside the announcement, a teaser visual, the main cast, and additional staff members were revealed.
The story is set in the research and development department of the Demon King's army. Department head Renbinkyo (voiced by Junichi Suwabe) is obsessed with the idea of gaining magic from humiliating humans. Together with his assistant Letze (Wakana Kuramochi), he constantly devises new traps, such as clothes-dissolving slime or tentacles, to lure adventurers into a snare. At the center of the story is the naive heroine Merisha (Haruka Shiraishi), who repeatedly falls into the demons' traps.
The series is being directed by Takuya Asaoka ('VTuber Legend', 'Immoral Guild') at Studio TNK. Kazuyuki Fudeyasu ('Shangri-La Frontier') is in charge of series composition, while Hiraku Kaneko ('Futoku no Guild') handles character design. The production is supported by KADOKAWA.
The original manga series was written by Takuji Kato and illustrated by Gashigashi. Initially launched as a webcomic on X (formerly Twitter), it has been serialized on Fujimi Shobo's Dra Dra Sharp# platform since March 2023. Four volumes have been released so far, with the fourth volume set to be published on July 9, 2026. An English license has been acquired by Yen Press.
The three main voice actors expressed their excitement: Junichi Suwabe described the series as a 'slapstick-style kink discussion comedy' and looks forward to playing Renbinkyo's eccentric side. Wakana Kuramochi emphasized her desire to sensitively portray Letze's devoted work, while Haruka Shiraishi praised the blend of erotic humor and situational comedy. A specific premiere month in 2027 has yet to be determined, with further details to follow in the coming months.
