The anime adaptation of Kei Misawa and Natsu Mizuno's original work 'The Next-Duke Said He Has No Intention of Loving You, but for Some Reason He Dotes on Me' will premiere July 4 on TV Asahi's NUMAnimation slot. The main PV and second key visual were released alongside opening and ending theme information.
The main PV opens with Julius's line at a lavish wedding: 'I married you, but I have no intention of loving you.' It then tracks how his heart begins to waver as he experiences Elsa's straightforward kindness and consideration, despite their initially pragmatic relationship. The latter half of the PV shows Julius's classmate Yarmo scheming and Serafina, who has feelings for Julius, showing jealousy toward Elsa. The second key visual centers on Elsa and Julius with a sunflower on Elsa's chest, along with Yarmo, Serafina, and Elsa's younger brother Hannes.
The opening theme is 'Itsuka Chanto.' by Riria., and the ending theme is 'Saishūkai' by sorato. Portions of both songs can be heard in the main PV. The cast includes Yui Ishikawa as Elsa, Soma Saito as Julius, Kaito Ishikawa as Yarmo, Tomoka Anzai as Serafina, and Junya Enoki as Hannes. Zero-G and Glass produce the animation. The series airs on TV Asahi's NUMAnimation slot from July 4, 2026, every Saturday at 25:30, and on BS Asahi every Monday at 23:24.
