Based on the fantasy light novel written by Alto and illustrated by Yuunagi, The Banished Court Magician Aims to Become the Strongest first began on the user-generated site Shosetsuka ni Naro in October 2020. Kodansha later acquired the series and has been publishing it under its K Ranobe Books imprint since August 2021.
A manga adaptation by Yuki Monji is also currently serialized on Kodansha’s Magazine Pocket app and website, with the English version available via K MANGA. The story follows Alec, a former court magician who had quietly supported the crown prince.
