posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
The anime will premiere in Japan on January 9 on the Tokyo MX and BS11 channels, and will also stream on the ABEMA streaming service in Japan.
Kodansha USA Publishing licensed the manga adaptation by Morohoshi Fuji, and it describes the story:
In a fantasy world where "jobs" are god-given from birth, heroes are born, not made...and Ein's job of "Appraiser" has put him about as far from the "hero" pedestal as possible. Used, abused, and eventually abandoned by his fellow adventurers, Ein decides it just isn't worth going on... Lucky for Ein, though, the end may just be the beginning...and a new lease on life. Turns out, his "worthless" job may just be the key to becoming a hero after all...
