Character information and cast comments have also arrived!
Ellen CV: Kana Hanazawa
A member of the Seven Knights and a friend of Faria. She is a self-proclaimed "woman without initiative" who professes to be irresponsible and a reticent person.
She is an heir to Vanessa, who was once called the "Master of the Hourglass," a great magician. Although she is not good at direct combat, she is skilled in recovery magic and works as a backup staff member for Seven Knights.
Kana Hanazawa comments
My name is Kana Hanazawa, and I will be voicing Eren!
Eren is a girl who is always cheerful and aloof. She is always saying, "I am a woman without initiative," and doesn't say what is on her mind. In fact, she may be harboring something...!
I hope you will enjoy watching her mysterious side.
Gareth CV: Yuichiro Umehara
He is a young man of the forest elf tribe and a member of the Seven Knights. He is a member of the "Seven Knights" and has a casual attitude because he has never been close to the human race, but at heart he is more passionate than anyone else.
He is the heir to Chris, the "Master of Darkness," and is a "demon hunter" who fights by combining the magic sword techniques he learned from Chris with the magic sword techniques of Chris.
Yuichiro Umehara comments
For those who have played the game, there will be familiar characters, and for those who are new to "Seven Knights" through the anime, I think you will be able to enjoy the story without prior knowledge.
Gareth, whom I played, as well as many other unique characters will appear in the game, so I hope you will enjoy watching their stories until the end.
Jyou CV: Shunsuke Takeuchi
He is a member of the Seven Knights and the captain of the boxing club. He is proud of his father, who was the "Heir Apparent," and has no doubts about risking his life in the fight to protect people from the "Pythys. He is the heir to the hero Spike, who was called the "Burning Heart of Ice," and he is able to manipulate freezing air at will to crush his opponents.
Shunsuke Takeuchi comments
This is an original scenario based on the setting of the original game, so I think it will be enjoyable for both players and non-players of the original game.
The quality of the animation is very high, so we did our best to match the beautiful movements and facial expressions. We hope you enjoy it.
Gildan CV: Yuya Hozumi
A member of Seven Knights, Gildan was the newest member of the team until Nemo joined. He is a small animal type who is friendly to everyone, especially to Jyou.
He is a prince of a small kingdom with beast blood, and the country expects him to be a hero. He is the heir to the Knight of Dragons, Jive, and has excellent defensive abilities.
Comment from Yuya Hozumi
I enjoyed playing the role of Gildan, who is energetic and full of emotion.
I hope I can convey to you the grandeur of the world and the nobility of Gildan's character.
Please look forward to seeing his activities in "Seven Knights"!
Shirley CV: Aimi Numakura
A member of the Seven Knights, known for her earnest personality. She is also the leader of the Public Discipline Committee, which is in charge of maintaining security at Grandseed Academy. He values discipline and precedent, and is skeptical of Nemo's sudden appearance.
She is the heir to the "Immortal Empress," Rachel, and has a medium-range attack using fire and a high self-healing ability.
Comment from Aimi Numakura
My name is Aimi Numakura, and I play the role of Shirley.
The recording was done a little early, so I am very excited to finally be able to see the "Seven Knights" characters in action.
The characters are very unique and their episodes are very memorable, so please look forward to seeing them.
Please look forward to it.

＜Introduction
Do what thou wilt.
There were once heroes who saved the world. Numerous heroes fought against the forces of destruction and protected this world.
And as time passed...
The heroes have passed into the far reaches of history, and the fate of the world has been entrusted to the boys and girls known as the "Heirs," who fight with their power in their hands.
Faria, one of the Seven Knights who stands at the top of the Inheritors, saves a boy named Nemo in a battle against the onrushing forces of Destruction.
In the midst of the fierce battle, Nemo, unbeknownst to himself, evokes the power of the "Hero" and wields it as the "Heir.
But his "hero" is someone no one knows, no one speaks of.
And from this moment on, it begins. A journey of the soul that intersects the past and the present...
