posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Kadokawa revealed on Monday that it is producing a television anime adaptation of Ippei Nara's 29-Sai Dokushin Chūken Bōkensha no Nichijō (The Everyday Life of a 29-Year Old Middling Adventurer) manga. Kadokawa is streaming a teaser trailer for the anime.
Nara also drew the below illustration to celebrate the anime's announcement.
The anime's main cast members include:
Riki Fukushima (Skate-Leading Stars, Duel Masters LOST Tsuioku no Suishō) is directing the series and overseeing the series scripts at animation studio HORNETS. Yoshihiro Nagamori (Beyblade X, Beyblade: Metal Fury, Bakugan Battle Brawlers) is the main character designer.
The manga's story centers on Shinonome Hajime, an adventurer and experienced dungeon delver. When he saves a girl named Rirui from being devoured by a slime monster, he finds out that the girl has been abandoned by her parents and has nowhere else to go. Unable to abandon the girl himself, he decides to take her in, and finds out that she is no normal girl.
Nara launched the manga in Kodansha's Bessatsu Shōnen Magazine in January 2016. Kodansha published the manga's 18th compiled book volume in December 2024, and will release the 19th volume on Friday. The manga is also available on the Magazine Pocket service.
