There are four anime adaptations of Minami-ke, done by two separate animation studios. The first, under the original title Minami-ke, is the only adaptation produced by Daume and aired on TV Tokyo between October 7 and December 30, 2007.
After the first anime ended, adaptations were produced by Asread. A second adaptation aired between January 6 and March 30, 2008 aired under the title Minami-ke: Okawari (みなみけ おかわり, lit. The Minami Family: A Second Helping), and also aired on TV Tokyo. The second season deviates slightly from the first season as it utilizes a different color palette, has different school designs, and uses different character designs. It is also different in storytelling as it uses material not from the manga, and each episode consists of only one story.
The third series, Minami-ke: Okaeri (みなみけ おかえり, lit. "The Minami Family - Welcome Home"), aired on January 4, 2009. The third season is more closely related to the first season as the character design and color palette is more similar, although there are still designs that are from season two. The third also returns to the episodic format from the first season.
