The TV anime series The Executioner and His Way of Life: Punitive Hero Unit 9004 Records has been announced for broadcast this year. At the same time, new cast information and the second teaser visual have been released.
The anime is based on the light novel series of the same name by Rocket Shokai and tells the story of a dark fantasy world. At its center is Zyro Forvartz, a former commander of the Holy Knights who was sentenced to "heroic punishment" for the murder of a goddess. He now leads the punitive division of the so-called Punitive Hero Unit and fights against the forces of the Demon King. The animation is produced by Studio KAI.
- Zyro Forvartz (voiced by Yohei Azakami): A fallen commander who was demoted to a punitive hero due to his grave crime—the slaying of a goddess. He possesses exceptional combat and leadership skills and remains calm in dangerous situations. Despite his rough and wild demeanor, he has a strong moral compass and protects those who are important to him.
- Theoritta (voiced by Mayu Iizuka): A sword goddess who has entered into a contract with Zyro. She can summon both holy and cursed swords. Though she is proud and enjoys praise, she often displays self-sacrificing tendencies. An endearing weakness: she likes having her head patted.
