Delico’s Nursery Anime Moves Second Half to October

After delaying its premiere by a month, the Delico’s Nursery anime is now pushing its remaining episodes — starting from Episode 7 — to October and giving them the label of “Act 2.” 

The announcement doesn’t frame this as a delay, but the effect is that Episode 7 will premiere on October 16 JST (effectively October 17 at 12:30 AM JST), over a month after Episode 6. In the meantime, there will be episode reruns with cast commentary and, on the last day of the in-between period, a narrated compilation of the first six episodes.

Delico’s Nursery started airing on August 7 JST (effectively August 8 at 12:30 AM JST). The anime is inspired by the TRUMP series of vampire-themed stage plays, with TRUMP being the name of a legendary vampire who retains the species’ lost immortality. 

Crunchyroll describes the plot as:

Hailing from a prestigious noble house, Dali Delico is an elite member of the Blood Pact Council, the highest governing body of the Vamps. Yet, Dali flatly refuses a mission the Vamps assign him. As Dali’s motives and possible connection to mysterious murders begin to mount, council members Gerhard, Dino, and Henrique visit him in hopes he’ll reconsider, but find him soothing an infant child!
