The anime will star (name romanizations are not confirmed):
- Takeo Ōtsuka as Orun Dula

Hiroyuki Kanbe (Oreimo, Viper's Creed) is directing the anime at "animation studio42." Masashi Suzuki (Lord of Vermilion: The Crimson King, Kanokon: The Girl Who Cried Fox) is overseeing the series scripts and Naoto Nakamura (Date A Live IV, Date A Live V, Date A Bullet) is designing the characters.
The fantasy story centers on Orun, a swordsman who changed to a mage class for the sake of the "Hero's Party" that he belonged to. He even developed a unique style of magic to support the party. But Oliver, Orun's childhood friend and the leader of the party, kicked Orun out of the party due to a lack of ability. His party members mocked him for being a "jack of all trades but master of none" and the party already found his successor. Disappointed, he parts ways with the party and begins solo activities as an explorer. Orun's fate changes dramatically with new encounters, and in order to protect those who have become important to him, he aims to take his "jack of all trades" skills to become the "ultimate all-rounder."
Togami launched the story on the Shōsetsuka ni Narō website in February 2021, and the story is ongoing. Kodansha publishes the novels in print and released the eighth volume on December 2.
Yonezou launched the manga on Kodansha's Suiyōbi no Sirius website in October 2021. Kodansha published the manga's 16th volume on Tuesday.
The franchise has more than 3.8 million copies in circulation.
