Thus begins Nasa's newlywed lifestyle.

Crunchyroll also streamed an English dub for the anime as well as dubs in Spanish, Portuguese, French, and German. Tonikaku Kawaii SNS, an original video anime (OVA) for the series, shipped on Blu-ray Disc in Japan on August 18, and began streaming on Crunchyroll on the same day.

Hiroshi Ikehata (Kiratto Pri☆Chan, Seton Academy: Welcome to the Pack) directed the anime at Seven Arcs, and Kazuho Hyodo (Kiratto Pri☆Chan) was in charge of the series scripts. Masakatsu Sasaki (Saki, We Never Learn: BOKUBEN) designed the characters while Goichi Iwahata designed the props. Ritsuko Utagawa served as the color key artist, and Yukihiro Shibutani directed the art. Satoshi Motoyama directed the sound, and "Endō." (Akiba's Trip: The Animation) composed the music.
