An anime adaptation was announced for another project from KONOSUBA creator Natsume Akatsuki back in March of last year, and now we have a new trailer for the anticipated anime take on Combatants Will Be Dispatched!.
Hiroaki Akagi (KARAKAI JOZU NO TAKAGI-SAN) is directing the adaptation, with Yukie Sugawara on series composition and Sota Suwa handling the anime character designs at production house J.C. Staff. Voice cast members include Yusuke Shirai in the lead as Combat Agent Six alongside Miyu Tomita as Alice Kisaragi.
Combatants Will Be Dispatched! kicks off in April. Check out the latest footage below.

Here’s how North American publisher Yen Press sums up the series:
Always being a gun to a sword fight!
With world domination nearly in their grasp, the Supreme Leaders of the Kisaragi Corporation–an underground criminal group turned evil megacorp–have decided to try their hands at interstellar conquest. A quick dice roll nominates their chief operative, Combat Agent Six, to be the one to explore an alien planet…and the first thing he does when he gets there is change the sacred incantation for a holy ritual to the most embarrassing thing he can think of. But evil deeds are business as usual for Kisaragi operatives, so if Six wants a promotion and a raise, he’ll have to work much harder than that! For starters, he’ll have to do something about the other group of villains on the planet, who are calling themselves the “Demon Lord’s Army” or whatever. After all, this world doesn’t need two evil organizations!
