The official X (formerly Twitter) account for the television anime adaptation of Rie Nishida's Tono to Inu (A Fearful Lord and a Cheerful Dog Live Together as Masters and Servants!) manga revealed the anime's October premiere and a teaser promotional video on Thursday.
The manga centers on a fearsome samurai, once feared on the battlefield for his great skill. But after his clan came to ruin, he has since lived a quiet and humble life, his intimidating face the only proof of his previous warrior life. One day, he encounters a curious corgi dog, who he is immediately taken with, and they begin a life together.
Nishida launched the manga on Flex Comic's Comic Polaris manga service in March 2021. Flex Comic published the manga's third compiled book volume on February 15.
