Have you ever heard of josei with better fight scenes than most shonen? Well, the upcoming anime adaptation of Fe’s Love of Kill is the story you are looking for.
It features an assassin named Son Ryang-ha, who falls for his colleague, Chateau Dankworth. He starts to stalk her and present her with crucial information in exchange for a date. Even though Chateau is initially reluctant, she is forced to accept him after both of them are targetted by a mutual enemy.
The official website for Love of Kill has released a promotional video for the upcoming anime adaptation. The series will debut in January 2022.
The PV begins with Son Ryang-ha as he faces off Chateau in a poorly lit parking lot. There are several scenes that elude to some kind of past connection between the two before their cat and mouse game, where they try to take each other out, in different senses, of course.
This PV also previews the opening theme for the anime “Midnight Dancer” by Toshiki Masuda. Aika Kobayashi is performing the ending theme “Makoto Period.”
The official Twitter account for Love of Kill has also released the first key visual for the anime.

About Love of Kill
Love of Kill is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Fe. It has been serialized in Media Factory’s shōjo manga magazine Monthly Comic Gene since October 2015 and has been collected in nine tankōbon volumes. The manga is licensed in North America by Yen Press.
Two assassins face off at a certain “workplace.” The cool bounty hunter Chateau and the mysterious and powerful Ryang-Ha.
Chateau and Ryang-Ha become enemies after this fight—at least, they should have, but for some reason Ryang-Ha takes a liking to Chateau and begins following her around.
Little by little, Chateau develops a cooperative partnership with Ryang-Ha, which gets her caught up in the struggle against the organizations hunting him down. Furthermore, that battle is related to her past as well.
Why did Ryang-Ha approach Chateau? What is Chateau’s secret past?
