Light Novel 'Your Forma' Gets TV Anime
The Dengeki Bunko 30th Summer Festival Online 2023 event announced a television anime adaptation of Mareho Kikuishi's Your Forma: Densakukan Echika to Kikaishikake no Aibou (Your Forma: Electronic Investigator Echika and Her Amicus Ex Machina) light novel on Saturday.
Kikuishi submitted the Your Forma: Denshi Hanzai Sousakyoku (Your Forma: Electronic Criminal Investigation Service) story at the 27th Dengeki Novel Awards and won the Grand Prize in October 2020. Kadokawa began publishing a rewritten version under the Dengeki Bunko label in March 2021, featuring illustrations by Tsubata Nozaki. The fifth volume shipped in December 2022, with the sixth volume scheduled to be released on August 10.
A manga adaptation by Yoshinori Kisaragi began in Young Ace magazine last June. The first volume shipped in November 2021.
Yen Press licensed both the light novel and manga in English in October 2021 and July 2022, respectively. The manga's first volume went on sale on January 23, with the fourth light novel volume planned for an August 22 release.
Synopsis
In an alternate 2023, the Your Forma, a miraculous "smart thread" technology initially developed to treat a massive outbreak of viral encephalitis, has become an integral part of daily life. But these convenient devices come with an invasive drawback—they record every sight, sound, and even emotion their users experience.
For electronic investigator Echika Hieda, diving into peoples' memories via the Your Forma and hunting for evidence to solve the toughest crimes is all part of a day's work. The problem is, she's so good at what she does that her assistants literally fry their brains trying to keep up with her. After putting one too many aides in the hospital, the top brass finally furnish Echika with a partner on her level, a brilliant yet cheeky android named Harold Lucraft. Does this unlikely duo have what it takes to resolve their mutual suspicions and avert a deadly technological infection from sweeping across the globe before it's too late? (Source: Yen Press)

An adaptation of detective LN with an adult protagonist and no duplication of Durarara or BSD ? I'm with you.
