The Dengeki Daisy TV anime is no longer just a “wait and see” adaptation — it now has a proper release window and a pretty chunky broadcast plan.
At a KyoMAF stage presentation on Saturday, the team behind the anime adaptation of Kyousuke Motomi’s shōjo manga Dengeki Daisy revealed its main promotional video. The big news: the anime is set to debut in January 2027 and will run for two consecutive cours, meaning fans are looking at roughly a half-year stretch instead of a short one-season drop.
That matters because Dengeki Daisy is not exactly a tiny one-volume story. The original manga ran from 2007 to 2013 in Shogakukan’s Monthly Betsucomi, with Shogakukan later publishing its 16th and final compiled volume in February 2014. A longer anime run gives the adaptation more breathing room than the usual “speedrun the emotional beats” treatment some romance and drama titles kena.
The event also revealed four additional cast members, with the available source metadata specifically highlighting Tomokazu Sugita and Yuka Terasaki among them. A new key visual was also shown, giving fans another look at how the anime is shaping up visually.
On the production side, Sōta Ueno is directing the series at Studio DEEN. Ueno’s previous credits include Days With My Stepsister and SHIBOYUGI: Playing Death Games to Put Food on the Table. Series scripts are handled by Sawako Hirabayashi, whose credits include Wolf Girl & Black Prince, Delicious Party♡Precure, and I’ll Become a Villainess Who Goes Down in History.
Character designs are by Ayaka Murakami, who also worked on Days With My Stepsister, while Masaru Yokoyama is composing the music.
The newly revealed staff also includes Kenichi Tajiri of Mukuo Studio and Goichi Katanosaka of GNK30 on art design. Rieko Itai and Chun Ri Rong of Inspired are credited as art directors, with Woorapon Jalacorn as director of photography.
For anyone unfamiliar with the title, Viz Media’s Shojo Beat imprint published the manga in English. The source report notes Viz’s English release and description, but the provided material does not include the full synopsis text.
Why SEA anime fans should keep this on radar
Analysis: For Malaysia and SEA viewers, the main reason this update is interesting is timing and format. A January 2027 debut puts Dengeki Daisy into the winter anime conversation early, and a two-cour run suggests the production is being positioned as more than a quick nostalgia cash-in.
Dengeki Daisy also comes from that late-2000s shōjo era that a lot of manga readers still remember fondly. If the anime lands the tone properly — romance, drama, comedy, and emotional slow-burn — it could sit nicely beside the recent wave of older manga titles getting fresh anime attention.
That said, keep expectations grounded for now. The source confirms the premiere month, run length, staff updates, cast additions, PV, and key visual. It does not confirm streaming platforms, Malaysia availability, regional release timing, or any cinema/event plans. So for now, this is one to bookmark, not one to start making watch-party plans for just yet.
Still, two consecutive cours for Dengeki Daisy? That’s a solid sign, bro. If Studio DEEN gives it enough heart and doesn’t rush the relationship beats, this could be a proper shōjo comeback pick for 2027.
