Lycoris Recoil Stage Play Cast

Lycoris Recoil (also referred to as LycoReco) is an original anime series by A-1 Pictures that’s directed by Shingo Adachi and written by Asaura. The series is set in an alternate version of Japan that’s kept safe by Lycoris, an all-female group of spies and assassins. Lycoris agents take down criminals and terrorists while being unknown to the public. Its story follows Takina, a Lycoris agent who is demoted after disobeying orders during a mission. She is assigned to work alongside Chisato, an expert Lycoris agent who refuses to take the life of criminals. Instead of standard guns, she uses non-lethal weapons. Takina and Chisato are opposites in terms of personality as Takina is strait-laced while Chisato is happy-go-lucky. But Takina must do her best to get along with Chisato if she wants to get her old position back. While the anime has concluded, fans have more to look forward to as the upcoming stage adaptation will let fans relive the show’s events.
