The television series "Isekai Munchkin - HP1 no Mama de Saikyō Sokuryaku Dungeon Kōryaku" (in German approximately: "Isekai Munchkin – Strongest and Fastest Dungeon Conquest with Constant HP1") will not start as originally planned in October 2025. The producers have announced a postponement of the broadcast.
As the reason for the schedule change, those responsible state that they need more time to improve the quality of the animations. A new start date for the broadcast is not yet set. As soon as it is determined, it will be announced on the official website and via the series' official social media channels.
"Isekai Munchkin" is based on a manga series by author Yu Shimizu and artist Makoto Aogiri, which appears in Kodansha's "Wednesday Sirius". The plot revolves around high school student Kihara Yūkito, an enthusiastic tabletop roleplayer. After his death, he is granted the chance of rebirth in a fantasy world by the goddess Nephilia.
There, however, he steals a powerful book, the "World Master's Guide", and is cursed for it: His hit points (HP) remain fixed at 1 forever. To survive in this dangerous world and find his missing sister Sana, Yūkito must exploit all the rules and loopholes of the system – like a "Munchkin", a term from roleplaying circles for players who unscrupulously use rule mechanics to their advantage.
The animated adaptation is being produced by Studio Durandal under the overall supervision of Mamoru Yokota. The direction is by Kei Yoshimizu and Naoya Fukushi.
The known cast of main characters includes:
- Waki Yamato as Yūkito Kihara
- Kana Yūki as Charlotte R. Brownia
- Yui Ishikawa as Rumilia Sherwood
- Kaori Maeda as Riveruna Dark
- Hizuki Tsukishiro as Sana Kihara
- Fukushi Ochiai as Rocinante
- Ayasa Itō as Marnagarm
- Yōko Hikasa as Nephilia Cars
- Anri Katsu as World Master's Guide / Narrator
