The popular manga "Übel Blatt" by Etorouji Shiono, known for its dark fantasy tale of betrayal and revenge, is set to receive an anime adaptation. This announcement comes as a pleasant surprise, especially since the manga concluded in 2019.

The story follows Koinzell, a young warrior who returns from the brink of death to take revenge on the "Seven Heroes," who achieved fame through treachery. The manga, serialized from 2004 to 2019 in the monthly magazine Big Gangan by Square Enix, spans 23 volumes.

Shiono expressed both surprise and delight upon learning about the adaptation. He mentioned that it’s difficult to imagine the characters animated and with voices but looks forward to seeing them come to life. Details regarding the cast and broadcast schedule are yet to be announced.

Additionally, a new chapter titled "Übel Blatt II: The Knights of the Dead King" was published in the February 24th issue of the monthly magazine Big Gangan Vol. 03. This sequel is set one year after the conclusion of Koinzell’s battle against Glenn and introduces a new conflict and mysterious assassins, hinting at ongoing unrest and unfinished efforts for peace.
