Delico’s Nursery will resume airing its second half of episodes starting October 16, according to an announcement on the show’s official website. The series, which debuted on August 7 following a delay from its original July release, will continue with new episodes from episode 7 onward.

The anime adaptation, based on Kenichi Suemitsu’s 2009 stage play TRUMP, is directed by Hiroshi Nishikiori at J.C. Staff. Nishikiori is known for his work on A Certain Magical Index and Azumanga Daioh. Suemitsu also handles the series’ scripts and composition, in addition to being credited for the original work. Yōko Itō, who previously worked on Amanchu! and Golden Time, serves as chief animation director and character designer. The music is composed by Shunsuke Wada, known for his contributions to Demon Slayer, My Hero Academia, and various Naruto stage plays.
The anime’s opening theme, “Unfair,” is performed by Mika Nakashima, while the ending theme, “Prayer,” is by Anonymouz.
The series is set in a world where the vampire race once possessed immortality but has since lost this power. The story is centered around the remaining mortal vampires and their interaction with the human race. A mythical vampire named TRUMP, believed to possess eternal life, is central to the narrative, with the plot following Dali Delico, the head of a prestigious aristocratic vampire family.
Suemitsu’s original stage play, which premiered in Japan in 2009, has since inspired various adaptations, including other plays, short stories, and concerts. The TRUMP manga, launched by Suemitsu and Hamaguri in Kadokawa’s Young Ace magazine in November 2020, concluded its run with the release of the fifth compiled volume on February 2. Although a prequel manga titled Cocoon was initially planned for spring, its release was delayed due to Hamaguri’s health issues. The manga eventually debuted on September 4.
