Since Uchimura has no particular powers, he must tackle every challenge he faces in this new world using the experience and knowledge of a salaryman! This career change isekai tale is for all the working folks out there!

The anime was previously announced for 2025 release.

Michio Fukuda (Failure Frame) is directing at GEEK TOYS and CompTown with assistant director Seung Deok Kim, and Hiroko Fukuda (Our Dating Story: The Experienced You and The Inexperienced Me, Taisho Otome Fairy Tale) is in charge of the series scripts.

The manga launched on Overlap's Comic Gardo web manga service in December 2019, and the ninth compiled book volume shipped on July 25.

The manga adapts Benigashira's earlier manga which they drew themselves, and began releasing digitally with the first volume in June 2019. The manga runs parallel to the new version by Muramitsu.

The second season of the television anime of Rikito Nakamura and Yukiko Nozawa's The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You (Kimi no koto ga Dai Dai Dai Dai Daisuki na 100-nin no Kanojo) manga will premiere in Japan on January 12 at 10:30 p.m. (8:30 a.m. EST), and it will also run on BS11 and other channels.

Crunchyroll will also stream the second season anime in North America, Central America, South America, Europe, Africa, Oceania, the Middle East, and CIS. It describes the first season's story:

Rentaro Aijo was rejected 100 times in middle school. He visits a shrine and prays for better luck in high school. The God of Love appears and promises that he'll soon meet 100 people he's destined to date. But there's a catch—once destiny introduces someone to him, the two must happily love each other. If they don't, they'll die. What will befall Rentaro and his 100 girlfriends in high school?

Hikaru Sato (Dropkick on My Devil!) directed the first season at Bibury Animation Studio. Takashi Aoshima (Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out!) was in charge of the series scripts. Akane Yano (Bottom-tier Character Tomozaki) designed the characters. Shuhei Mutsuki, Shunsuke Takizawa, and eba composed the music at Lantis.

The first season's staff is returning for the second season, with the addition of Tsumugi Maeda as the second sub-character designer and costume designer.

The anime's first season premiered in October 2023. Muse India streamed the anime in India as it aired in Japan.
