Delicoā€™s Nursery is scheduled to premiere on August 8, 2024 on the Japanese television broadcast network Tokyo MX, MBS, and a number of other Japanese channels. The series is licensed for an international simulcast through Crunchyroll, available to stream in North America as each new episode is released weekly. The series had initially been scheduled to premiere in July 2024, though this was delayed because of unspecified production issues.

The Origin of Delico’s Nursery

Created by Kenichi Suemitsu, Trump began running as a stage play in Japan in 2009, with follow-up plays and stories in other media surfacing over the years. Suemitsu, with artist Hamaguri, eventually adapted the plays and short stories inspired by it into a manga series in 2020, which has not yet received an officially translated English publication. An anime series under the title Delicoā€™s Nursery was first announced in August 2023, with the series animated by J.C. Staff, directed by Hiroshi Nishikiori and written by Suemitsu.

Delicoā€™s Nursery Trailers

Before the change in premiere date, Delicoā€™s Nursery released a full trailer, shared by Crunchyroll, online, listing the original July 2024 release window. The trailer introduces viewers to the world of Delicoā€™s Nursery, including the Delico family, one of the highest-ranking vampire clans in the world. The trailer focuses on the children in the family nursery, with Dali Delico caring for the kids as his associates in the Blood Pact Council face a grave crisis targeting vampires close to them and are frustrated by Daliā€™s commitments towards looking after children.
