Voice actors Ai Kayano and Shinichiro Miki are joining the cast of the upcoming Delico’s Nursery TV anime series, which will premiere in Japan on August 7, 2024.
Kayano is joining the series as Frieda Delico and Miki as Klaus (pictured left and right respectively in the image below).
The anime was originally scheduled to broadcast in July 2024, but was delayed by a month due to production circumstances.
TRUMP series playwright and original creator Kenichi Suemitsu is writing the screenplay and script for Delico’s Nursery, with Hiroshi Nishikiori (Gekijouban Idolish Seven: Live 4bit – Beyond the Period) as director, Araya as original character designer, Yoko Ito (Little Busters!, Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Soma) as character designer and chief animation director, and Shunsuke Wada (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba stage play) as music composer. J.C.STAFF is in charge of the animation production.
Meanwhile, the anime’s main voice cast stars:
- • Masakazu Morita as Dali Delico
- • Katsuyuki Konishi as Gerhard Fra
- • Hiro Shimono as Henrique Lorca
- • Takuya Sato as Dino Classico
- • Rina Hidaka as Uru Delico
- • Konomi Kohara as Lafaelo Delico
- • Ayasa Ito as Angelico Fra
- • Yu Wakui as Lucia Lorca
- • Sanae Fuku as Elena Lorca
- • Chika Anzai as Theodore Classico
Suemitsu’s original TRUMP stage play opened in Japan in 2009. It has inspired several other plays, short stories, and live concerts, as well as a manga adaptation by Hamaguri that ran in Kadokawa’s Young Ace magazine from November 4, 2020 to December 4, 2023. Another prequel manga series titled Cocoon will be serialized in the same magazine sometime in 2024.
Delico’s Nursery will stream on Crunchyroll, which describes the synopsis as:
Hailing from the prestigious noble house of Delico, Dali Delico is an elite member of the Blood Pact Council with a promising future. When the Blood Pact Council, the highest governing body for the Vamps, assigns a special mission to Dali, he flatly refuses it. Having lost patience, Gerhard, Dino, and Henrique, who are also Council members serving the same term as Dali, rush to the house of Delico to persuade him.
What they witness there is Dali, taking care of an infant himself… Meanwhile, there has been a series of mysterious murders targeting Vamps. Can they find the right balance between their absolute mission and childcare in this magnificent gothic world?!
