Written By Samantha Ferreira December 8, 2016

It’s time to meet an incredibly lonely tyrant. Chances are, he’s very pretty.

The latest volume of Megane Mihoshi’s Renai Bōkun (The Very Lovely Tyrant of Love) manga (Volume 10) features a wraparound band. The band features an announcement that the title’s anime adaptation will première in the Spring 2017 broadcast season.

The book also reveals that studio EMT Squared (Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE! LOVE!, Kumamiko – Girl meets Bear) will produce the animation.

According to the book, EMT Squared will reveal a visual in the near future.

Renai Bōkun began publication on Holp Shuppan’s Comic Meteor website in 2012. The latest volume has a street date of December 9.
