Well, what if one day, all of a sudden, the popular and undeniably extraordinary president of the student council tries to befriend you out of the blue, an average student with no big ambitions that leads to a sudden change in your life?
Directed by Takahide Ogata, the upcoming anime has the fans of the light novel of the same name excited and on the edge of their seat with its ordinary yet unique protagonist, Ken Usato, an ordinary student with average grades befriending famous students and being thrown into a different world.
Written by Shogo Yasukawa, the lead cast of the upcoming anime stars Shogo Sakata voicing the character of Ken Usato, Ayaka Nanase voicing the character of Kazuki, Kengo Takanashi voicing the character of Amako, Saya Aizawa giving voice to the character of Amako, Atsuko Tanaka giving voice to the character of Rose and Akeno Watanabe voicing the character of Blurin.
Having no other choice, the three of them resign to their new reality, but things change when Ken discovers his hidden talent, an affinity for the incredibly rare healing magic. However, with the newfound power comes responsibilities.
The newfound power of Kens unlocks a surge of confidence and thrusts him into the spotlight of the magical community in a different realm, but the fame he receives isn’t all that rainbow and sunshine.
So, the anime enthusiasts get ready to laugh, root for the underdog, and gasp as the first episode of the anime titled “The Wrong Way To Use Healing Magic” is ready to unleash the whirlwind of adventure and a dash of magical mayhem.
What To Expect?
The upcoming anime’s prime focus will be on Ken Usato, the ordinary student with average grades who is also the run-of-the-mill of the high school, but things take a turn after the vice-president and president befriend him out of the blue, and they are thrown into another world after a summoning ceremony goes haywire.
Well, in the ordinary realm of the high school cafeteria, Ken Usato is an average teen with a hidden talent for blending in. He finds his humdrum life disrupted by an unlikely bond after he is drawn towards Suzune, the charismatic student council president, and Kazuli, the apathetic vice president.
Well, after a summoning ritual goes haywire, the trio gets thrown into a different world, and Ken discovers his hidden talent for healing magic, leading to his newfound social stratosphere exploding, revealing the fate to have a strange sense of humor about baggage allowance.
Suddenly, the once invisible and ordinary boy finds himself soaking in the spotlight with every mage wanting a piece of healing powers, but fame-like magic has a dark side to itself, and one overzealous healing mage begins to tail him due to its obsession with unlocking the secret behind Ken’s power.
Ken has no other choice but to be careful in the unfamiliar world where magic fizzes in the air and danger lurks behind every friendly smile he witnesses. The question that remains is how do they find their way back.
Things further take a turn after Rose, the mage obsessed with knowing the reason behind Ken’s powers, kidnaps him and uses him for his services. All the while, Ken tries to find his way back home.
