The anime will restart its broadcast from the first episode on July 16, so the third episode (the originally delayed one) will air until July 30. The series had premiered on April 9, however, it suspended the broadcast of new episodes due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on production.
For its part, the original novel previously inspired two adaptations to live-action television series in 2005 and 2006 with a female lead, Miwako Kanbe. Other Tsutsui novels like Toki or Kakeru Shoujo and Paprika previously inspired adaptations of animated films. Tsutsui published the novels between 1975 and 1977.

Synopsis for Fugou Keiji Balance: Unlimited
The story centers on the incredibly wealthy Daisuke Kanbe, who is a detective who is in charge of solving cases in the most unconventional way. Although Tsutsui's novel was published between 1975 and 1977, the anime will play out in the modern era.
Kanbe is assigned to the "Modern Crime Combat Unit," a unit that was, in fact, created to separate troublesome officers from others. There, Kanbe becomes Katou's partner.
