Etorouji Shiono‘s Ubel Blatt manga is getting a TV anime adaptation.

The Square Enix-published dark fantasy ran from 2004 to 2019 and is collected into 24 tankoubon volumes, with the first being numbered as volume “0”. It was serialized in Gangan YG at first but was a Monthly Big Gangan title by the time it ended. A sequel, Ubel Blatt II: The Knights of the Deceased King, has just started running in Monthly Big Gangan.

Manga Up describes the plot as:

After twenty long years in the dark, the time has come for a confrontation with Glenn, one of the Seven Heroes!

Hatred…envy…confusion…Koinzell’s heart overflows with emotion as he moves singularly toward his revenge, blade in hand! But it only takes an instant for the situation to take an unexpected turn…
