Assault Lily (Japanese: アサルトリリィ Hepburn: Asaruto Rirī?) is a Japanese mixed-media franchise created by Azone International and Acus. It mainly consists of two lines of toy figurines titled Assault Lily and Custom Lily.[3] The series takes a theme of combining "girls" and "weapons" and revolves around teenager girls called "Lily" who have to fight against monsters called "Huge" using their weapon called "Charm".[4] Two novels have been published; the first, titled Assault Lily ~Hitotsuyanagi-tai, Shutsugeki Shimasu!~ (アサルトリリィ～一柳隊、出撃します！～?), was released in June 2015, and the second, titled Assault Lily Arms (アサルトリリィ アームズ?), was released in July 2017. Three stage plays based on the series have also been performed.

An anime television series adaptation by Shaft, titled Assault Lily Bouquet (アサルトリリィ BOUQUET Asaruto Rirī Būke?), aired from October to December 2020. A spin-off mini anime, titled Assault Lily Fruits, aired from July 2021 to January 2022.

Plot

In a near future, humanity is threatened by the existence of monsters they call "Huge" (ヒュージ?). To anticipate this, the whole world unites against Huge and succeeds in developing a decisive weapon called "Charm" (チャーム?) that brings together the power of science and magic. Since Charm shows high synchronization to teenage girls, these girls are called "Lily" (リリィ?) and are regarded as heroes. To train them, the Lily training institution called "Garden" (ガーデン?) was established all over the world to counter Huge, and became a "sanctuary" to protect and guide people.

Reception

In a review on Erica Friedman's Okazu, Kristin called it a trap for yuri, saying she highly doubts "it will be worth it unless you're really into the skin and bouncing boobs of teenage girls."[87] Even so, some called the romance between Kaede and Riri a good sign for those fans tired of having lesbian characters "doomed to the Wasteland of Subtext."[88]
