Chisato and Takina belong to a huge network of young, female secret agents and assassins called Lycoris. They work behind the scenes to keep Japan in a constant state of peace and make sure it's always free of terrorists.

Though the two couldn't be any more different, with Chisato's chatty nature being the balancer to Takina's cold demeanor (at least in the beginning), their partnership has been proven to be quite effective many times with the success of their various missions.

But as Chisato is an Alan Institute beneficiary, she has to go on a mission which involves killing people, though she doesn't know this yet.

Just how would this go for her, given her strict no-kill-as-much-as-possible policy? And would Takina ever end up getting back to DA, or would her friendship with Chisato and the rest of the Cafe LycoReco staff amount to something when the time comes?

These are only a few of the brilliantly written conflicts and drama in A-1 Pictures' original anime, Lycoris Recoil. If you needed a little more push to finally start getting into it, let this be it!

Lycoris Recoil is definitely deserving of the online hype about it. Keep reading to know where and how you can watch the series.

Even if Lycoris Recoil isn't on Netflix outside Japan, fans still get to watch all its episodes with a premium subscription to Crunchyroll.

Following its announcement of a lowering of rates, a Crunchyroll subscription doesn't sound too bad, especially since subscribers get to see anime other than LycoReco shortly after their episodes are released in Japan.

After Crunchyroll's initial confirmation of an English dub for Lycoris Recoil, a more recent announcement says it's due for release sometime in August 2022.
