Production company VAP opened an official website for a television anime adaptation of Yuu Morikawa's Kyuujitsu no Warumono-san (Mr. Villain's Day Off) manga on Friday and revealed the main cast, staff, and a teaser promotional video.

Shintarou Asanuma (Yojouhan Shinwa Taikei) is starring as Warumono-san.

Staff
Director: Yoshinori Odaka (Bem)
Series Composition: Midori Gotou (Subarashiki Kono Sekai The Animation)
Character Design: Tomomi Shimazaki (Youkai Apartment no Yuuga na Nichijou)
Music: Nobuaki Nobusawa (Steins;Gate 0)
Studio: Shin-Ei Animation, SynergySP

Morikawa began serializing the comedy manga on the Gangan pixiv website on December 2018. Square Enix shipped the fourth volume on February 22. The manga is also released in English through the Manga UP! app.

Synopsis
As a member of a malevolent organization, the General is tasked with invading Earth and wiping out humanity. Even an extraterrestrial being like him, however, needs a chance to rest.

Not even the Rangers—a team solely dedicated to defeating the General and his colleagues—will stand in the way of him visiting pandas at the zoo, buying ice cream at the convenience store, and enjoying his well-deserved day off from committing evil deeds. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Premise sounds like a good time lol, if I see the manga anywhere I'll give it a shot. Not much to expect from PV though.
