The previously announced anime adaptation of Reborn to Master the Blade: From Hero-King to Extraordinary Squire ♀ revealed a new key visual. The anime will premiere in January of 2023. Studio Comet is animating the series, with Naoyuki Kuzuya as the director.
Additional cast for the anime has also been revealed and includes:
Akari Kito is voicing Inglis Eucus and Ai Kakuma is Rafinha Bilford. The voice cast was revealed along with the first trailer earlier this year.
Reborn to Master the Blade is a fantasy light novel written by Hayaken and illustrated by Nagu. The series began serialization in March 2019 and is being serialized in Hobby Japan’s HJ Bunko imprint. A manga adaptation by Moto Kuromura is also ongoing.
J-Novel Club licensed both the light novel and the manga in English and describes the plot as:
From his deathbed, Hero-King Inglis, the divine knight and master of all he surveys, gazes down on the empire he built with his mighty hand. Having devoted his life to statecraft and his subjects’ well-being, his one unfulfilled wish is to live again, for himself this time: a warrior’s life he’d devoted himself to before his rise to power. His patron goddess, Alistia, hears his plea and smiles upon him, flinging his soul into the far future. Goddesses work in mysterious ways—not only is Inglis now the daughter of a minor noble family, but at her first coming-of-age ceremony at 6, she’s found ineligible to begin her knighthood!
However, for a lady of Inglis’s ambition, this is less a setback and more the challenge she was (re)born to overcome. “It’s not the blood that runs through your veins that makes a knight; it’s the blood you shed on the battlefield!” The curtain rises on the legend of an extraordinary lady squire reborn to master the blade!
