Satoshi Motoyama is the sound director, Pony Canyon is in charge of music production, and Bit Grooove Promotion is in charge of sound production.

Happinet specifically states the anime is adapting the manga adaptation of the original light novel series. Happinet describes the story:

Ike is known as "the strongest magician in the demon king's army" and is a single-handedly conquering fortresses.

The way he mowed down the enemies with his immense magic is truly a "monster" that makes him feared by both allies and foes alike.

However, he had a secret that he could not tell other demons.

"--I'm actually human."

Aiming for a coexistence between demons and humans while the leader of demon's army is hiding the fact that he is actually a human!?

Hata (The Reformation of the World as Overseen by a Realist Demon King, A Boy Raised by Gods Will Be The Strongest) launched the story on the Shōsetsuka ni Narō website in February 2016, and the latest update was in November 2022. Futabasha published the fifth novel volume in April 2018.

Tomo-chan Is a Girl! premiered on January 4 in Japanese and with an English dub. Crunchyroll added the Hindi dub in November.

Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead premiered in Japan in July 2023. Muse Asia streamed the anime in India as it aired in Japan. Crunchyroll also streamed the anime in Japanese with English subtitles and later added the Hindi dub in the same month. Netflix began streaming the anime in India in the same week as its debut.
