Nyaruko: Crawling With Love is a Japanese anime television series based on the light novels by Manta Aisora. The story revolves around a nyarlathotep known as Nyaruko who is sent to Earth to protect the human boy, Mahiro Yasaka. The animated part of the franchise consists of two flash anime series produced by DLE and an anime television series by Xebec.

Nyaruani (這いよる!ニャルアニ), which was released between October 23, 2009, and March 15, 2010, and a television sequel series titled Haiyoru!

The Xebec animated anime television series, titled Nyarko-san: Another Crawling Chaos (這いよれ!ニャル子さん Haiyore! Nyaruko-san), aired on TV Tokyo between April 10 and June 26, 2012. All three series are being streamed by Crunchyroll since 2012, and Nyarko-san: Another Crawling Chaos was simulcast. The opening theme for the OVA flash series is "Like, Like, Love" (好き、好き、大好き。 Suki, Suki, Daisuki.) by Kana Asumi, whilst the ending theme for the second flash series is "The Catharsis of a Woman's Love" (恋する乙女のカタルシス Koisuru Otome no Katarushisu) by LISP. For the 2012 anime TV series, the opening theme is "The Sun Says "Burn, Chaos" (太陽曰く燃えよカオス Taiyō Iwaku Moeyo Kaosu) by Kana Asumi, Miyu Matsuki and Yuka Ōtsubo (the voices of Nyaruko, Kuuko, and Kurei respectively) whilst the ending theme is "Always Be With You" (ずっと Be with you Zutto Be with you) by Kana Asumi for the first 11 episodes and "Magamagashiku mo Seinaru kana" (禍々しくも聖なるかな) by Asumi, Matsuki, and Ōtsubo for the final, 12th. A 10-minute original episode on DVD was offered for buying all of the TV anime series Blu-ray Disc or DVD volumes.
A second season called Nyarko-san: Another Crawling Chaos W (這いよれ!ニャル子さんW Haiyore! Nyaruko-san Daburu) aired in Japan between April 8 and July 1, 2013, on TV Tokyo and was streamed with English subtitles by Crunchyroll.
