I see which tastes Seven Arcs battle series Chained Soldier is leaning into.
Akari Kito (who voices Kotoko in In/Spectre) and Yuya Hirose (who plays Yuta in SSSS.GRIDMAN) are our lead two characters.
Who wrote the original work? Akame ga Kill! ‘s Takahiro and Yohei Takemura.
Yen Press have the rights to the English manga, and their description gives me the lowdown on the peaches. They say;
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?!
Junji Nishimura and Goro Kuji both have directing credits, and we only have a year – 2023 – for when the series is due out.
I notice Amazon has the books and a very slightly different synopsis.
Otherworldly spaces known as “demon cities” appeared in various parts of Japan, and those who partook in the “peaches” growing there gained unique abilities – but only if they’re girls. One day, a down-in-the-dumps high school boy named Yuuki Wagura suddenly gets lost at the entrance of a demon city. There, he meets Kyoka Uzen, the beautiful leader of the seven programs of “Magical Defense Corps,” who orders him to become her slave?!
