Japanese media Febri met with Shingo Adachi , director and screenwriter of the anime Lycoris Recoil , before the story's climax arrived. Adachi commented on aspects of the most recent episode and the possibility of developing the story after its conclusion.
At the time of publishing the interview, episode 9 is scheduled to air.
Lycoris Recoil – Continuation depends on the fans
In the interview he commented 2 points below and talks about the possibility of creating a story from the protagonists' point of view:
- Are they cute but also fragile? From Chisato and Takina's subjective point of view, what adults do is not the main problem. Although the girls present various problems and incidents in the society around them, we don't want to forget that this time it is only from the perspective of the two girls. If there is a future opportunity with the Lycoris Recoil project, it could create another story from a different perspective.
He also revealed his interest in giving more development to the stories that took place in the cafeteria:
- I wish I had done more stories set in the cafeteria. I had prepared several sweet menus like Takina's special that appeared in episode 8, but I couldn't draw much. Regrettable. With your enthusiastic support, I may finally have the chance to draw these stories. Thank you everyone for your support!
Let's wait and see if we will have a continuation, or rather, a second season of Lycoris Recoil.
Synopsis
In short, the number of terrorist acts in Japan has never been lower, thanks to the efforts of a syndicate called Direct Attack (DA). Thus, the organization raises orphan girls as assassins to carry out murders under its “Lycoris” program. In fact, Takina Inoue is an exceptional Lycoris, with a strong sense of will and a propensity for perfection. Unfortunately, a hostage situation tests his patience, and his act of insubordination results in his transfer from the DA's office. He's not thrilled about losing the only place he belonged, but he reluctantly arrives at his new base: LycoReco, an undercover coffee shop... What will become of it now?!
Finally, according to the official website, the series premiered in Japan on July 2nd.
