Girls’ Frontline is set to premiere sometime in January 2022. It will debut alongside several other new anime series like Love After World Domination, Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury, The Greatest Demon Lord is Reborn as a Typical Nobody, Police in a Pod, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Requiem of the Rose King and new seasons of Ascendance of a Bookworm, Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? and Tiger & Bunny.
