TV anime "Searching Heroic Tale Starting with Mob" to be broadcast in 2024! Main cast includes Ariya Hozumi and Kana Hanazawa!

It has been decided that "Searching Heroic Tale Starting from Mob" published by the light novel label [HJ Bunko] will be adapted into a TV anime in 2024, and the first key visual and the first PV have been released. The main staff and cast have also been announced.

The first key visual and the first PV of the TV anime "Mob Kara Kara Hajime Sukui Eiyotan" have been released! The popular work from Noro, with a PV of over 85 million, will be adapted into an anime in 2024!

The TV anime "Mob Kara Hajime Sabori Eiyotan" is based on the book "Mob Kara Hajime Sabori Eiyotan" (HJ Bunko/Hobby Japan) written by Kaisho.
One day, Kaito Takagi, a "mob" high school boy who has been hunting slimes in a dungeon that suddenly appeared in the world, encounters a golden slime that he has never seen before. When he defeats the slime, it drops a servant card that allows him to summon a mythical being. This is an upstart fantasy set in a world where dungeons have suddenly appeared in the modern age, and is a popular work with a total PV of over 85 million on "Shosetsu-kaerou" (Novelist's Letter). The latest eight volumes of the original novel are scheduled for release on February 1 (Thursday).

The first key visual released in conjunction with the announcement of the anime adaptation depicts the main character, Kaito, and his servant, Sylphy, with the "Dungeon Park," where the story takes place, in the background. They are holding a special (?) "insecticidal spray". The contrast between Kaito, who is holding a special(?) "insecticide spray" and Sylphy, who is holding the "divine spear" Rajunate, is symbolized in this visual, which expresses the appeal of this work that goes back and forth between the modern world and the dungeon and different worldviews. The catchphrase for this key visual is "Everyone was a mob at first. Gold-ranked explorers and heroes that the main character, Kaito, admires, must all have been "mobs" at first. Enjoy the story that begins with a "mob" encounter with Sylphy!

The first cast information is now available! The roles of Kaito and Sylphy will be played by Yuya Hosumi and Kana Hanazawa, respectively!

The first two cast members have been announced. Official comments from each cast member have arrived.

Takagi Kaito CV.

<Character Introduction

A high school boy who dives into dungeons as a mob explorer. He is a novice who can only defeat slimes and is looked down upon by those around him, but his environment changes drastically one day when he obtains an extremely rare item, the Servant Card.

＜Cast comment: Yuya Hosumi

My name is Yuya Hozumi, and I will be playing the role of Kaito Takagi. I hope to express to the best of my ability the coolness and cuteness of Kaito, who is expressive, a bit out of the ordinary, but straight forward in pursuit of his goals! Please look forward to Kaito's adventures as he grows up together with these fascinating characters!

Sylphy CV: Kana Hanazawa

Kaito's servant, summoned from a card. She has an honest and cute personality, but is actually a demigod. Her basic abilities are amazing, and she features not only offensive magic, but also defensive magic and skills that raise the combat power of the entire team.

<Cast comment by Kana Hanazawa

I will be voicing Sylphy, a Valkyrie summoned from a card. She is just adorable and is like a mascot character in this work. She is a gentle and healing girl, but she is also charming when she gets upset or spoils the mood! I hope I can express her melt-in-your-mouth cuteness.

（I hope I can express her melt-in-your-mouth cuteness.)
