The second key visual and the trailer were released from "LAIDBACKERS".
The new visual depicts a castle, a five-story pagoda, and a giant flame giant in the background, creating a worldview that blends "other world" and "modern".
The characters seem to be fighting with unique weapons in their hands, but will the former heroes and the Demon King, who have been reincarnated in the opposite world, fight in modern Kyoto?　The trailer is told from the perspective of Kumi Motonenuma (CV: Yumiri Hanamori), the landlord of the former heroes and the owner of a candy shop, and features the first appearance of Harami (CV: Rina Hidaka) and her character voices.

In addition, the theme song for the film will be sung by Kizuna AI, the (self-proclaimed) world's first virtual YouTuber, who boasts overwhelming popularity around the world, both in Japan and abroad.
This will be her first tie-up with a theatrical production, and we look forward to seeing how her music will color the film.

＜Introduction
The heroes and the Demon King, who have been reincarnated "backwards" in Kyoto, begin their harsh battle against the Demon King...?
Kumi Motonenuma is an art student who moves to Kyoto to take over her grandmother's candy shop.
However, three girls, Harami, K, and Mai, and a dog have taken up residence in the supposedly vacant candy shop!
To their surprise, Harami and her friends are heroes who have been reincarnated from the world of swords and sorcery to this world in pursuit of the Demon King!
However, the girls have lost their powers due to their reincarnation and have become ordinary people.
Unable to expel the girls, who have no relatives or common sense, Kumi moves in with her funny friends.
One day, freed from the sense of mission in her former world, she begins to adjust to the peaceful world, and each of them lives freely. One day, Ran, the former Demon King, who had lost his power and became an elementary school student, appeared before them and said, "Come with me, you lack a Demon King.
Will you join me in collecting the pieces of the Demon King?
