Age-gap romances may not exactly be popular with everyone, meaning shows in this genre are not as common. But fans of age-gap romance anime are in for a treat as A Girl & Her Guard Dog is an upcoming anime in the genre that’s coming this October.
To promote its upcoming premiere, the anime got a new key visual that highlights its leading man. Along with this, two new voice cast members were also revealed.

Crunchyroll to Stream A Girl & Her Guard Dog in October
The Guard Dog in this anime’s title refers to Keiya, the 26-year-old guardian and loyal servant of 15-year-old Isaku. This is because Isaku is the granddaughter of a yakuza boss.
With Isaku entering high school, her ever-loyal bodyguard decides to enter high school as well to drive away boys that are interested in her.
Though underneath his bodyguard role, the loyal guard dog may also have feelings for Isaku.
This upcoming anime is being made by Project No.9, the studio behind another age-gap romance, Higehiro, as well as the office rom-com My Tiny Senpai.
A Girl & Her Guard Dog will be released this October, and it is also confirmed to stream on Crunchyroll in the US and other selected regions.
