posted on by Adriana Hazra
Muse Asia's official Facebook page announced on Friday that it will stream the television anime of Ennki Hakari's Skeleton Knight in Another World (Gaikotsu Kishi-sama, Tadaima Isekai e Odekakechū) light novel series on YouTube on April 7. Episodes of the anime will stream on Thursdays at 8:30 p.m. IST.
Alongside India, Muse Asia will stream the anime in Bangladesh, Bhutan, Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar (Burma), Nepal, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, and Pakistan.
Muse Asia describes the anime:
Arc awakes and finds that he has been thrown into another world in the form of the game character he used to play in MMORPG. His character was a "skeleton knight" that looked like a skeleton clad in full-body armour. ──If people find out, they will think he is a monster and try to kill him! Arc decides to keep a low profile and spend his time as a mercenary. However, he was not the sort of man who could let evil run rampant in front of his eyes! An isekai fantasy about a skeleton knight who "make a world a better place", selflessly, is here!
The anime will premiere in Japan on April 7.
Katsumi Ono (Hypnosis Mic -Division Rap Battle- Rhyme Anima, Hataraki Man, Girly Air Force, Senki Zesshō Symphogear sequels) is directing the anime at Studio KAI and HORNETS, and Takeshi Kikuchi (Night Wizard The Animation, Ragnastrike Angels) is supervising the series scripts. Tōru Imanishi (Girly Air Force, Super Cub, WorldEnd) is designing the characters based on the original novel illustrations by KeG. The artists eba and Tsubasa Ito (Iwa-Kakeru! -Sport Climbing Girls-, The Price of Smiles) are composing the music.
Seven Seas Entertainment is publishing the light novel series and its manga adaptation in English.
Ennki Hakari launched the novels on the Shōsetsuka ni Narō (Let's be Novelists) website in October 2014, and Overlap published the first volume with illustrations by KeG in June 2015. The series now has 1.5 million copies (in print and digital) in circulation.
Akira Sawano (A Bridge to the Starry Skies character design) launched the manga adaptation on Overlap's Comic Gardo website in February 2017.
