On Friday, June 14, 2024, the staff of the television Delico’s Nursery anime series released a new main promotional video for the show, confirming that it would premiere in August 2024. Additionally, the staff announced the titles and artists of the opening and ending theme songs, both of which were featured in the promotional video.

The premiere of the Delico’s Nursery anime, which was initially scheduled for July 2024, has been postponed due to undisclosed reasons. As an alternative, the franchise will release four special programs weekly starting from July 10. The first three programs will showcase the stage play series, while the fourth will feature a discussion with the anime’s cast.

The Delico’s Nursery anime series is adapted from the 2009 stage play titled TRUMP, written by playwright Kenichi Suemitsu. The play premiered in Japan in 2009 and has since sparked the creation of other plays, short stories, concerts, and a manga series illustrated by Hamaguri in Kadokawa’s Young Ace magazine. Although Hamaguri planned to release the prequel manga, Cocoon, after the conclusion of the original on February 2, 2024, it was delayed due to health concerns.
