In August 2024, it was announced that the manga will receive an anime television series adaptation. The series is produced by Lesprit and directed by Tomohiro Tsukimisato, with scripts written by Touko Machida and characters designed by Ayano Ōwada. It is set to premiere in July 2025.[4][19][1]
In a review of the first two volumes, Rebecca Silverman of Anime News Network praised the series for its art and its story, stating: "With You and the Rain is a slow, sweet story about the bond between a woman and her pet. Does it matter what the pet is? Maybe, but I think the main appeal of this series is how simple it is to just sit back and enjoy the ride."[20]
The series was nominated for the 2022 Next Manga Award in the print manga category and was placed fourth out of 50 nominees.[21][22]
