Hinase Momoyama, the artist behind the manga adaptation of the light novel, created an illustration to celebrate the anime announcement.
The Holy Grail of Eris is a Japanese light novel series written by Kujira Tokiwa and illustrated by Yuunagi. It began serialization online in October 2017 on the user-generated novel publishing site Shōsetsuka ni Narō. SB Creative later acquired the series, publishing four volumes between November 2019 and March 2022 under their GA Novel imprint.
A manga adaptation, illustrated by Hinase Momoyama, has been serialized online through Square Enix’s Manga Up! website since November 2019. Additionally, a new edition of the novel series by the same author and illustrator will begin publication under Drecom’s DRE Novels imprint in November 2024.
Yen Press is licensing the light novel in English and describes the story:
As a viscount’s daughter, Constance Grail is an ordinary girl whose only notable trait is sincerity, leaving her with no real options when someone steals her fianc and falsely accuses her of petty theft at a ball. While Connie awaits her undeserved punishment, a ghost appears to offer a bargain. The spirit is none other than Scarlett Castiel, a noblewoman once praised for her beauty, lineage, and undeniable charisma-and executed some ten years earlier for her wicked deeds. When Connie accepts this proposal, she is possessed by the infamous spirit who instantly turns the tide on her tormenter, thus saving the hapless girl from her miserable fate. It’s never wise striking a deal without knowing exactly what you’ve committed to, though…or you might find yourself bound to a ghost dead set on revenge against her own enemies!
