Kodansha opened an official website for the television anime adaptation of Hatsuharu's Ojou to Banken-kun (A Girl & Her Guard Dog) manga on Monday, revealing a teaser visual (pictured) and a teaser promotional video. The anime is scheduled to premiere in 2023.

Hatsuharu began serializing the school romance manga in the Bessatsu Friend magazine in December 2018. Kodansha released the seventh volume on January 13 and scheduled the eighth volume to ship on Thursday. Ojou to Banken-kun has a cumulative 2 million copies of its volumes in circulation.

Kodansha USA licensed the manga in English in November 2020 and released the seventh volume digitally on June 21.

Synopsis
Isaku never asked to be the daughter of a yakuza boss, but when her parents died in a car accident when she was 5, her gangster grandfather took her in and raised her as part of the clan. After years of being avoided by her schoolmates because of her family ties, Isaku is finally ready to make her high-school debut, live a normal life, and maybe even find love...until loyal family servant and Isaku's dedicated guardian, 26-year-old Keiya, enters high school right alongside her and vows to protect her from all of the above! Now she's got a chain-smoking, pistol-wielding knight-in-shining(?)-armor to deal with, and navigating high school besides? What's a young lady to do?! (Source: Kodansha USA)

Can't wait for not legal gang to seethe and weep just because the genders and roles aren't reversed this time.

Oh yeah I'm sure if the genders were swapped people would be all over it calling it sexy and hot lol
I have some of my own issues with this series from what I read of the manga, but the double standard is funny to see ngl

it's not just typical bastard boyfriend, he is abusive groomer that manipulate female lead to keep her dependent on him and very posesive that severe female lead social interaction with anyone. but i guess this is some people kink like above.

Have you never read any of the shoujo/josei smut manga that exist? Manipulative behavior is the norm there for whatever reason. I've seen like 20 manga of those kind where the guy's a major asshole but at least he fucks well in bed so it doesn't metter how abusive he is, right?

his abusive is way over the top for something that really try portray it's wholesome.

I wonder how many people would find it hot and interesting if he was a woman. Oh, I literally know highly regarded yuri with such a love interest.

I don't know, yandere is not my cup of tea.

it's actually worse than synopsis. Male lead actively manipulating female lead to make her always think nobody want her and only him care about her. he even at one point put female lead in house arrest because she dare to talk to random male stranger he didn't approve.

this series is anything but cute.

this is NOT romcom.

So, the main girl's love interest is ten tears older mafioso, who is clingy, obsessive smoker and frequently trespasses on school grounds.
Dunno. Kinda rubs the wrong way, but i'm not the one to judge the show by it's premise alone.

When was the last time we got classic shoujo romance? Really good news.

Mushikaburi-hime is literally airing this season.
There is at least one other with shoujo tag currently airing.

Thank you and I always welcome an adaptation of a shoujo manga. Especially a typical shoujo romance like this... I miss it.

I hope Namaikizakari and Dengeki Daisy can be adapted too, hahaha.

Oct 10, 2022 12:56 PM by hanakocheeks

Yeeeessssss I wanted to read this anyway so imma wait for the anime I honestly need more shoujo anime cuz it became rare recently

Oct 10, 2022 8:08 AM by chibi-tan-chi

Ok this is extremely unexpected.

not only a shoujo romance but a typical shoujo romance as well, and not some long running one that has been completed for 100 years.

at least from what I can recall this was pretty nice for the first few chapters so here's hoping the anime does the series justice

How is this getting an adaptation before Yubisaki to renren (which has amazing sales and storyline)?
I'll watch this anyway. Need to support shoujo shows-they are so rare anyway.

better to get no adaptation than a butchered one ayyyyyy
