Kadokawa has confirmed that Where is the Elf Teacher's Toilet? (Elf-Sensei no Toire wa Doko Desu ka?), the comedy manga series by Chizuna Nakajima, is set to receive a television anime adaptation. To celebrate the announcement, Nakajima released a commemorative illustration, and the production team launched an official social media account to track future updates.
The series centers on Eruru, an elf teaching trainee who arrives from another world and finds herself in a constant, humorous struggle to navigate the modern world's lack of lush, forest-like facilities for her personal needs. The manga originally debuted in Kadokawa’s Comic Cune magazine in January 2024, with two compiled volumes currently available. Following a brief hiatus, the series is scheduled to resume its serialization this Saturday.
This project marks a return to television animation for Nakajima, whose previous work, Angel's Drop, was adapted into a special in 2013 by studio AIC Frontier. While the announcement confirms the transition to the screen, details regarding the production studio, staff, or a release window remain unannounced. With the manga returning to publication this weekend, readers can look forward to seeing how the adaptation captures the series' specific brand of fish-out-of-water comedy.
