The upcoming Scooped Up By An S-Rank Adventurer! (Yuusha Party o Tsuihou Sareta Shiro Madoushi, S Rank Boukensha ni Hirowareru ~Kono Shiro Madoushi ga Kikakugai sugiru~) TV anime is set to begin airing on July 10 JST (effectively July 11 at 1 AM JST). The show’s second key visual was released with the premiere date reveal.
Additionally, it was announced that M.A.O is joining the cast as Clea, and that Choucho‘s “Hikari Sasu Tobira” is the ending song for the anime.
Yuusha Party o Tsuiho Sareta Shiro Madoshi is based on the manga drawn by Wasabi Mukuno, which adapts the light novel series written by Sora Suigetsu. The premise sees the White Mage Lloyd being ditched by the Hero’s Party due to his perceived lack of ability. Unbeknownst to the Hero’s Party, Lloyd is actually the disciple of a missing great sage, and can use support magic that is beyond the norm. After being cast out by the Hero’s Party, Lloyd becomes an adventurer while under the impression that he is nothing special.
Yuusha Party o Tsuiho Sareta Shiro Madoshi started as a Shousetsuka ni Narou web novel in March 2020. Futabasha publishes both the light novels and the manga, with the latter serialized in Gaugau Monster+. The light novels are illustrated by DeeCHA, who is credited as original character designer for the anime.
