Based on the manga by Makoto Hoshi, The tale of outcasts is being directed by Yasutaka Yamamoto (Noblesse) at studio Ashi Productions, with series composition by Kenichi Yamashita (Holmes of Kyoto) and character designs by Mina Ohsawa (given), plus music by Hiroaki Tsutsumi (JUJUTSU KAISEN) and Kana Hashiguchi (Classroom of the Elite Season 2).

Crunchyroll, who announced in July that it will be streaming the anime worldwide, describes the series as such:

The demon by her side is her salvation.

The girl by his side is his pastime.

Their encounter in the late nineteenth-century British Empire begins the tale of a search for someplace to belong.

To their fellow outcasts, this demon and girl whisper their tale in the dark of night.
