TV anime “Exploration Heroic Story Starting with Mob” will be broadcast in 2024!

It has been decided that “Mob kara Hajime Exploration Heroic Story” published by the light novel label [HJ Bunko] will be made into a TV anime in 2024, and the first key visual and first PV have been released. At the same time, the main staff and cast were announced.

The first key visual for the TV anime “Exploration Heroic Story Starting with the Mob” is released! Narou’s popular work with over 85 million PVs will be made into an anime in 2024!

The original work of the TV anime “Exploration Heroes that Start with Mob” is based on Kaito’s book “Exploration Heroes that Start with Mob” (HJ Bunko/Hobby Japan).
Kaito Takagi, a mob'' high school boy who continues to hunt slimes in a dungeon that suddenly appears in the world, one day encounters a golden slime he has never seen before. When you defeat that slime, a servant card that can summon mythical beings will drop. A popular upstart fantasy set in a world where dungeons have suddenly appeared in the modern era,Let’s Become a Novelist” has a total of over 85 million page views. The latest 8 volumes of the original novel are scheduled to be released on February 1st (Thursday).

The first key visual released in conjunction with the announcement of the anime depicts the main character Kaito and the servant Sylphy against the backdrop of Dungeon Park, the setting of the story. The appeal of this work is that it goes back and forth between modern times, dungeons, and different worldviews, as symbolized by the contrast between Kaito, who holds the deadly (?) Insect Spray, and Sylphy, who holds the divine spear, Lajunate. The result is a visual that expresses this. The catchphrase of this key visual is “We all started out as mobs.” Whether it’s the gold-rank explorer or the hero Kaito admires, everyone was probably a “mob” at first. Please look forward to the story that begins with “Mob” after meeting Sylphy!

First cast information released! Yuya Hosumi will play the role of Kaito, and Kana Hanazawa will play the role of Sylphy!

Cast information has also been released, with two people being announced as the first cast. Official comments have arrived from each cast member.

Kaito Takagi CV.Yuya Hosumi

<Character introduction>

A high school boy who dives into dungeons as a mob explorer. He is a timid person who can only defeat slimes and is made fun of by those around him, but one day he obtains an extremely rare item, a servant card, and his environment changes completely.

<Cast comment Yuya Hosumi>

My name is Yuya Hosumi and I will be playing the role of Kaito Takagi. I hope to be able to express Kaito’s coolness and cuteness as much as possible, as he has a rich expression and is a bit off-putting, but he is still working towards his goal! ! Please look forward to Kaito’s adventure as he grows along with the charming characters! ! !

Sylphy CV.Kana Hanazawa

<Character introduction>

Kaito’s servant summoned from a card. Although he has an honest and cute personality, he is actually a demigod. His basic abilities are amazing, and he is characterized by not only offensive magic, but also defensive magic and skills that increase the combat power of the entire team.

<Cast Comment Kana Hanazawa>

I will be in charge of the voice of Sylphy, a Valkyrie summoned from a card. He’s so cute, he’s like a mascot character in this work. She is an honest, gentle and soothing girl, but her charm is that she is sometimes sullen and spoiled! I hope she can properly express that melting cuteness.
