Comment from Yusuke Kobayashi
Please tell us your impression of the character Arthur Boyle.

He is an idiot. But sometimes he is cool! But he is still an idiot. But sometimes he is really cool! I imagine him as a knight-king with a mysterious range of personality (laugh)!

─ Please give a message to the fans who are looking forward to this work.

The mystery that surrounds the main character, the bonds between friends, the swirling intrigue, and the dynamic battle scenes with flames. There is really a lot to see in this work!　Please look forward to the broadcast!
