I’m Akaneya Himika, who voices Ryuran. This is surely a once-in-a-lifetime encounter for Ryuran in a sunny world. I was excited to see how such an exciting story could be born when their seemingly ordinary (?) everyday lives come together. I hope the charm of both the series and Ryuran is fully conveyed.) ▼In addition, we’re holding a campaign to celebrate the announcement of the cast appearing in Episode 18!

Among the six who once made that vow, there was one boy who was completely lacking in talent. One day, when he expressed his frustration, his childhood friend said to him: “Cry, you don’t have any particular role, so just be the leader.” The party “Strange Grief,” formed by a group of incredibly talented monsters (childhood friends), made a name for itself throughout the Imperial Capital within just a few years. He was placed at the head of the group and, before he knew it, was elevated to the position of leader of the strongest party. Due to the rising expectations of those around him, his words and actions are always misunderstood, leading to unexpected developments… This is the heroic tale, full of glory and suffering, of Krai Andrich, renowned as the leader of the strongest party and the most powerful clan master!
