Based on the manga by Takahiro and Yohei Takemura, Chained Soldier is being chief-directed by Junji Nishimura and directed by Goro Kuji at studio Seven Arcs, with series composition by Yasuhiro Nakanishi (Toilet-bound Hanako-kun), character designs by Hiroyuki Yoshii and music by Kohta Yamamoto (Attack on Titan Final Season).
Yen Press, who publishes the manga’s official English version, describes the series as such:
Decades ago, gates to an otherworldly and dangerous dimension known as Mato—the “Demon City”—appeared across Japan. Those who partook in the “peaches” growing there gained unique abilities—but only if they’re girls. When down-in-the-dumps high school boy Yuuki Wakura finds himself caught up in a gate, he’s saved by Kyouka Uzen, the beautiful commander of the 7th squad of the Demon Defense Force, who…orders him to become her slave?!
The anime adaptation is scheduled to begin airing sometime in 2023.
