A new trailer, key visual, and four additional cast members were announced on Thursday.

They join the previously announced leads Sora Tokui as Rin Takanashi and Yuki Ono as Vil. The trailer previews the opening theme "Butterfly" by INUWASI.

HIDIVE confirmed it will stream the series in the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand as part of its summer simulcast lineup. The story follows Rin, a woman around thirty who is summoned as a saint alongside a high school girl, only to be exiled immediately when her camper van and survival skills are judged worthless. She discovers those skills are actually powerful in the right environments and sets off on a solo camping and cooking journey across the fantasy world, gathering companions as she travels.
