Love of Kill has just premiered on Crunchyroll. From the look of it, the anime will need a couple more episodes to prove itself, as some viewers found the first episode's pacing too rushed to follow. The premise is nevertheless an interesting one, and we can never have too many Enemies to Lovers stories, as much as we'd like it to be otherwise. Besides, it is not every season that a story for the josei demographic gets adapted. That, too, is a win.

Below, you will find everything you need to know about the new Platinum Vision project, including the release date and time of the premiere, where to watch, and everything else you need to know about Episode 2 of Love of Kill.

Love of Kill or Koroshi Ai, as is the show's original Japanese title, is based on a manga of the same name, written and illustrated by Fe. The story follows Chateau Dankworth, a quiet, stoic assassin, tasked with killing Son Ryang-ha - also a notorious killer, legendary for having killed 18 officials in one night. Their first encounter reveals that Song is also after Chateau.

As it turns out, though, he doesn't plan on persecuting her in the way you would expect. Song offers her gifts in the form of targets, and endeavors to get to know her better. In time, the two end up working together - but don't worry, the story is still more about action and mystery, rather than romance as such.

So far, there's chemistry between the two characters, although Chateau would prefer not to admit it. The animation could be a bit better, but if you can move past that, the show promises to be an interesting addition to the Winter 2022 anime season if handled well.
