Animation studio SHAFT is in charge of animation production. The anime's format has not yet been revealed.

The comedy manga's story centers on Satoko, a naive kunoichi (female ninja), and Konoha, a high school girl assassin. Satoko escapes from the ninja village, meets Konoha, and they start living together a life full of danger and excitement.

HundredBurger launched the manga on Kadokawa's Comic Dengeki DaiohG magazine website in August 2021. Kadokawa published the manga's first compiled book volume in January 2022, and the fourth volume shipped on April 26. The manga was nominated in the Best Printed Manga category for the "Next Manga Awards" in 2022.
