Pony Canyon began streaming the second commercial for the television anime adaptation of Yun Kouga and Sunao Minakata's Riddle Story of Devil (Akuma no Riddle) manga on Saturday. The video is narrated by Ayaka Suwa as her character Tokaku Azuma, who says that all of her classmates are assassins.

The story is set at Myōjō Academy, a private girls' boarding school. All the students in the 10th year's Kurogumi class are assassins with one target, Haru Ichinose. Tokaku Azuma is a recent transfer student who is also targeting Ichinose, but she gradually develops feelings for Ichinose.

Keizō Kusakawa (Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's and Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha films, il sole penetra le illusioni ~ Day Break Illusion, Ro-Kyu-Bu!, Sekirei) is directing the anime at diomedéa. Kiyoko Yoshimura is in charge of the series scripts, and Naomi Ide is serving as the character designer and chief animation director.

Story creator Yun Kouga and artist Sunao Minakata launched the manga in Newtype in 2012, and Kadokawa published the second compiled book volume this month.

The anime will premiere in Japan on April 3.
