The dub crew includes:

The anime premiered on April 5 on NHK Educational at 6:25 p.m. JST (5:25 a.m. EDT). The show will have a total of 24 episodes.

Yūji Watanabe (Lupin the Third: Part 5 episodes 2 and 4) and Naoko Saitō (Lupin the Third: Part 5 episode 2) are the series' animation directors. Tadashi Kudo (The Heroic Legend of Arslan, Lupin III: Farewell to Nostradamus film) is directing the art, and Shiho Kuriki (City Hunter The Movie: Angel Dust, Armored Trooper Votoms: Pailsen Files films) is the color key artist. Shinji Saitō (City Hunter The Movie: Angel Dust film) is the compositing director of photography. Kisuke Koizumi (Chainsaw Man, Kingdom third and fourth seasons) is directing the sound, and Michiru Ōshima (Fullmetal Alchemist, The Tatami Galaxy) is composing the music.

The anime has a manga adaptation that Akane Hoshikubo (Hōkago no Salome, Sonogao de Ai Sanaide) launched in Kadokawa's B's-LOG COMIC magazine on January 5.

The first novel is set in the late 19th century in the fictional town of Avonlea in Prince Edward, Canada, where an 11-year-old orphan girl named Anne Shirley is sent by mistake to middle-aged siblings Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert. The siblings originally intended to adopt a boy to help them on their farm. The novel tells of Anne's adventures in school and within the town.

The anime adaptation depicts Anne's growth from a girl to a woman, through her bond with the siblings Matthew and Marilla, her friendship with Diana, and her romance with Gilbert. (Some of these story elements appear in Montgomery's later sequel novels.)

Japanese novelist and translator Hanako Muraoka translated the Anne of Green Gables novel to Japanese with the title Akage no Anne in 1952.
