BL novel "The Magician", a very popular BL novel in China, will be produced as an anime series Japanese subtitled and dubbed version!

The "The Magician" anime series has been distributed on Tencent Video (騰訊視頻) in China since 2018. The long-awaited Japanese version of the anime series is now set to land, with the live-action drama based on the same original work, "Chenjing Decree," still fresh in the minds of viewers.

Based on the BL novel "The Witch Doctor" by Sumika Coppersmith, which was serialized on the web in China from 2015 to 2016. After its completion, the extremely popular content has been developed into an overwhelming media mix, including radio dramas, anime, manga, and live-action dramas.
The work, which features a lineup of China's top-class popular voice actors in a highly topical original story, has been distributed on China's Tencent Video (騰訊視頻) since 2018, exceeding 40 million PV in just three days after its release and ranking first in the site's anime access ranking.
The film was well received for its ink painting-inspired background art, magnificent fight scenes, and music using classical instruments, and won the Grand Prize for Best Animated Series at the Golden Dragon Awards, the largest competition in the Chinese manga and animation industry, for two consecutive years. The animation, which incorporates traditional Chinese elements, also attracted overseas fans.

The elaborate and epic story and fascinating characters have created a buzz, and the series has not only exploded in popularity throughout Asia, but also has a deep-rooted fan base in Japan.
This time, the production of the Japanese subtitled and dubbed versions of the anime series "The Magician" has been decided. The Japanese version will not only be subtitled, but will also be dubbed in Japanese.

Sony Music Solutions, the Japanese distributor of the "Chenjyoji" series, and Aniplex, which has produced a number of anime films, will jointly develop the series for Japanese anime fans and fans of the original work. The method of release will be announced at a later date.

Bien Jiang, the voice actor who plays the role of Lan Wu Jiang, also dubbed the role of Lan Wu Jiang in "The Order of the Sacred Mind," and the anime's unique attention to detail in its glamorous recreation of the Sacred Mind is also something to look forward to.
