Well, anime enthusiasts, are you ready to join Rentt Faina, the protagonist of your beloved light novel series, in the upcoming anime version that is set to make its appearance on your screen on January 8, 2023, for you to enjoy?
The intriguing light novel series created by Y Okano and drawn gorgeously by Jaian has an in-built fan base that has played an important role in forming the fan base for the upcoming anime series, who eagerly await the release of the anime version of the light novel series.
With almost no talent for his job, Rentt, the monster hunter, has his life turned upside down after a crazy turn of events as he emerges as an undead creature after he is killed by a mystical dragon.
Directed by Noriaki Akitaya and written by Yukie Sugawara, the anime series lead cast will feature Ryōta Suzuki giving the voice of Rentt’s character, a monster slayer turned into a pile of bones; Mikako Komatsu giving the voice of Lorraine Vivie, a high-level magician, Ikumi Hasegawa giving the voice for Sheila Ibarss’s role, and Sayumi Suzushiro giving the voice for Rina’s character.
Well, will Rentt be successful in his attempt to find his way back into the world of living after being stuck between the world of living and the world of death following his transformation into a pile of bones?
What to Expect?
The upcoming anime titled “The Unwanted Undead Adventurer” primarily focuses on Rentt Faina, a 25-year-old monster slayer who has spent his prime years slaying numerous monsters, even though he isn’t very good at his job. He transforms into a pile of bones.
The anime’s focus will be on Rentt’s journey to find his way back into the world of living after he remains stuck between the worlds of living and dead following his interaction with a dragon that ends with him getting swallowed.
Rentt is an unskilled adventurer who has been stuck at the Bronze rank for more than 10 years but manages to make a living through scrapes he earns after slaying lowly monsters like goblins. Rnett’s life takes a turn when he goes to explore Moon’s Reflection Labyrinth and stumbles into a tunnel.
Rentt embarks on a singular journey, armed with his tool belt and sword, going through a process of existential evolution that allows him to become a human again.
The anime has a humorous twist as Rentt learns to speak and walk again after transforming into a ghoul following his killing of several goblins and slime while realizing that he is becoming stronger with every kill.
