An overview of the original work for the fall anime "Kingdom of the Dead"!
Kingdom of Hell is a series currently being serialized on Mag Garden's webcomic sites, Monthly Comic Garden and MAGCOMI. It's a science fiction/dark fantasy series written by Yoruhashi. As of March 2023, eight volumes have been published, and a TV anime adaptation is scheduled to begin airing in October 2023 as part of a media mix project.
Here's the synopsis for "Kingdom of Hell"!
Witches, wielding the mysterious power of magic, used it to help humans avoid disasters and epidemics, living side by side with them. However, with the advancement of science and technology, humans gained the ability to even kill witches. Their leaders began to hunt them down, proclaiming "independence from witches." Adonis, a boy raised by the frost witch Chloe Morgan, wandered with Chloe in search of a safe haven, until Chloe was brutally murdered right before his eyes by the empire's new weapon. Having lost his beloved mentor before his very eyes, Adonis resolved to exact revenge on humans.
Who is "Kingdom of Destruction" recommended for?
"Kingdom of the Dead" blends science fiction and fantasy, making it a recommended read for fans of that genre. However, it contains many brutal scenes with blood and flesh flying, which may be off-putting for some. A similar work is "Attack on Titan," which shares some similarities, such as the protagonist's brutal murder of his adoptive parents and his subsequent actions to seek revenge, as well as the massacre of a group of people living in peace. However, there are no liner notes. Everyone's ratings are low.
The anime "Kingdom of the Dead" is produced by Yokohama Animation Lab!!
"Kingdom of the Dead" is produced by Yokohama Animation Lab!

However, the scheme he undertakes succeeds in a way he never expected, and he gains fame he never wanted.
Legend of Mana -The Teardrop Crystal-

Of the three central storylines in the game, this anime is an animated adaptation of the "Jewel Thief Arc," which tells the story of the gem-based race, the Tamami. This anime was created to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Legend of Mana series, and an HD remaster was released in 2021. The remastered version includes additional cutscenes, which were also co-produced by Yokohama Animation Lab and Graphinica.

This is an alternate-world reincarnation story about a former office worker who, due to an unfortunate incident, is reincarnated into another world and begins his career as a healer.
The protagonist, Adonis, is played by Kaito Ishikawa!
The protagonist, Adonis, is played by Kaito Ishikawa! His notable roles include Genos in "One-Punch Man," Naofumi Iwatani in "The Rising of the Shield Hero," and Tenya Iida in "My Hero Academia." He's also often played dark characters, making him the perfect choice for the lead role in a dark fantasy!
The heroine, Doroka, is played by Azumi Waki!
The heroine, Doroka, is played by Azumi Waki! Her notable roles include Sanae Katagiri in "The Idolmaster Cinderella Girls," Special Week in "Uma Musume: Pretty Derby," and Hinata Tachibana in "Tokyo Revengers." She's known for her bright and kind heroines, so I think she fits the character perfectly!
The protagonist's adoptive mother, Chloe, is played by Ryoko Shiraishi!
Ryoko Shiraishi plays the protagonist's adoptive mother, Chloe! Her notable roles include Ichiai Onizuka in "SKET DANCE," Chocho Akimichi in "BORUTO: NARUTO NEXT GENERATIONS," and Sora Takenouchi in "Digimon Adventure: The End." I think her strong, kind, big sister-type character is a perfect fit for the role of Chloe! Although Chloe meets a tragic end early on, she is still an incredibly important character.
