The anime adaptation of "Headhunted to Another World," based on the work by Benigashira and Mura Mitsuru, is set to air in January 2025. Alongside this announcement, a second key visual, a new promotional video, additional cast members, and details about the opening and ending themes have been revealed.

The story follows an unremarkable office worker named Uchimura Dennosuke, who is recruited as one of the Four Heavenly Kings for the Demon Lord's army. Using his skills and experience from the corporate world, Uchimura must overcome various challenges in this new magical realm. The second key visual showcases the Four Heavenly Kings: Uchimura, Ulmander, Sylphid, and Geonome.

The newly announced cast includes Takashi Hoshino as Sylphid, an expert in magical technology; Nene Hieda as Geonome, the leader of a demi-human army; Chitose Morinaga as Orul, the daughter of the Ogre tribe's chief; and Ayami Tsukui as Neia, a mysterious girl who seeks Uchimura's help.

The opening theme, titled "Isekai Concerto," is performed by Kentarō Seino, while the ending theme, "Tsuyogirlfriend," comes from the music project otonari and is sung by RIRIKO. Both artists have expressed their enthusiasm in comments, and snippets of both songs can be heard in the second promotional video, which also features the characters' voices.

The anime is produced by GEEKTOYS and CompTown, with Michio Fukuda as director, Yuko Fukuda handling series composition, and Ayumi Nishihata in charge of character design. The main cast includes Yūki Ono as Uchimura, Konomi Kohara as Ulmander, and Akio Otsuka as the Demon Lord.
