Buddy Daddies will reportedly be another series in P.A. Works' popular "Work Anime" genre. This time, the work in question is assassination. Hitmen Rei Suwa and Kazuki Kurusu are partners, and their target is apparently a little girl by the name of Miri Unasaka. Rei Suwa is voiced by Koki Uchiyama, who plays Tomura Shigaraki on My Hero Academia. Kazuki Kurusu is voiced by Toshiyuki Toyonaga. Toyonaga voices Kenjiro Shirabu in Haikyuu!.
Furthermore, directing the new series is Yoshiyuki Asai, of Charlotte and Fate/Apocrypha fame. Nitroplus' Vio Shimokura and writer Yuko Kakihara will work on the story and series composition. Yuko Kakihara previously worked as a scriptwriter for the Cells at Work! anime adaptation. Kakihara was also a writer for Steins;Gate.
