The anime's premiere was delayed to July due to the effects of COVID-19 on the anime's production. The anime was originally scheduled to premiere in April.

Crunchyroll will stream the anime as it airs.

Sumie Noro (Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle) is directing the anime at Doga Kobo. Yuka Yamada (Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid) is in charge of the series scripts, and Hiromi Nakagawa (WATATEN!: an Angel Flew Down to Me) is designing the characters. Ruka Kawada is composing the music.

Kodansha USA Publishing is releasing the manga in English, and it describes the story:

Saint Cecilia is beloved by the townspeople—not only is she elegant and composed, she benevolently shares her wisdom with all who seek it. That is, until the last person has left—at which point she becomes totally hopeless! Only Pastor Lawrence, is keeping the Saint put together enough to do her duties...and though she may test him, it's all in a day's work!

Kazutake debuted the manga in Kodansha's Shōnen Magazine R magazine in April 2017. The series is also serialized on Kodansha's Magazine Pocket manga app. Kodansha will publish the manga's 12th compiled book volume on Wednesday.
