'Hanaori-san Still Wants to Fight in the Next Life' Anime Adaptation Announced; Comment from Author Hekiru Hikawa Included

The anime adaptation of Hanaori-san Still Wants to Fight in the Next Life, currently serialized in Kodansha's Monthly Morning two, has been announced. This is the latest work from Hekiru Hikawa, the author behind popular titles such as Pani Poni.

The story follows Ryusei Narukami, a shut-in who spends his days playing games, but who had once been a Demon King in another world. It also follows Meteor Hanaori, the former hero who defeated him and is now a high school girl. This romantic comedy between a former Demon King and a former Hero is now set to be brought to life as an anime.

Alongside the anime announcement, a teaser visual featuring the former hero and now high school girl Meteor Hanaori has been released.

[Comment from Author Hekiru Hikawa]
“When I first heard that Hanaori-san was going to be turned into an anime, I thought it was a dream—I couldn't tell it apart from the reality my stress had shown me. It seems that it really is being adapted.

As the author, I am fortunate to be involved in the anime production at such a wonderful distance, and they are creating an anime that preserves the original atmosphere while being fun, amazing, and stylish—so maybe it really is a dream.

Let's meet in a dream, everyone.”
