posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
The company also secured key sales for distribution of the anime in Asia through Aniplus-Asia television channel. The anime will debut through these distributors (in addition to Crunchyroll) in South Korea (Aniplus-Asia) and in Southeast Asia (Ani-One Asia) "shortly after [the anime's] broadcast in Japan." Between the three distributors, the platforms will distribute the anime in more than 200 countries and territories.
The anime adapts MBS, BS NTV, and other channels.
NTV describes the anime:
Makoto Misumi is just an ordinary high school student living a regular life, but all of a sudden gets summoned to the other world to become a "hero." The goddess of the other world, however, insults him for being different and strips his "hero" title, before casting him off to the wilderness at the edge of the world. As he wanders the wilderness, Makoto encounters dragons, spiders, orcs, dwarves, and all sorts of non-human tribes. Because Makoto comes from a different world, he is able to unleash unimaginable magical powers and combat skills. But just how will he handle his encounters with various species and survive in his new environment. In this fantasy, Makoto tries to transform the other world into a better place despite the humans and gods having turned their backs on him.
The cast includes:
Ayane Sakura as Tomoe, the first to agree to be Makoto's follower
Akari Kitō as Mio, the second to agree to be Makoto's follower
Yasuharu Takanashi (Fairy Tail, Log Horizon, Super Lovers) is composing the music.
Azumi launched the novel on the Shōsetsu ni Narō website in 2012, and Kotora Kino started serializing a manga adaptation in 2016, and AlphaPolis published the eighth volume on October 22.
