The television anime adaptation of Chie Shinohara's Red River manga is set to premiere on July 7 on NTV's AnichU block and on July 8 on BS NTV. The adaptation, which had never received an anime before, has been in the works for over three decades since the manga's original run in the 1990s.
The cast is led by Mirai Tachibana as protagonist Yuri, Wataru Katō as Kail, and Aya Uchida as Queen Nakia. Seven additional cast members were announced in May: Tomohiro Ōno as Kikkuri, Shiki Aoki as Hadi, Natsumi Kawaida as Ryui, Misato Matsuoka as Shala, Haruki Ishiya as Kash, Junya Enoki as Rusafa, and Shinichirō Kamio as Mittannamuwa. Kōsuke Kobayashi directs the series at Tatsunoko Production, with Yoriko Tomita handling series scripts and Kenji Fujisaki designing characters. Yoshihisa Hirano composes the music.
The music lineup was completed in late June with the announcement that Miisha Shimizu will perform the ending theme song "Reunion." The opening theme song "Akatsuki no Sora" is performed by Hiroki Nanami. Viz Media released the manga in English from 2004 to 2010 and began re-releasing it in omnibus editions in October 2024.
