Nia Liston: The Merciless Maiden has confirmed its ending theme song, "Tokimeki Un・Deux・Trois♪," just ahead of its fall 2026 premiere. The track is performed by Magic Vision Girls Party, a special unit featuring voice actors Honoka Inoue (Nia Liston), Rina Honnizumi (Hildetora Altoir), and Rina Hidaka (Reliared Silver). To mark the announcement, the production team released a new key visual showcasing the three characters.
The series, which adapts Umikaze Minamino’s light novel series, follows a legendary hero reincarnated into the frail body of a young girl. While the source material began as a web novel on Shōsetsuka ni Narō, the anime adaptation is being produced by KONAMI animation. The show is set for a substantial two-cour run, beginning October 6 on Japanese television, with HIDIVE handling the international streaming release.
While the anime is primarily recognized as an adaptation of the light novels, it also draws from the ongoing manga serialization by Kabuto Kodai. With the 12th volume of the light novels arriving in early October and the ninth manga volume following shortly after, the franchise is seeing a synchronized push across multiple formats. The series enters the Fall 2026 season as an original fantasy project for the studio, following a recent advance screening of the first three episodes.
