"...I'm gonna be a Mythril, no matter what!"
Ten years have passed since Rentt first made that vow. Ten years spent polishing his skills with the blade, studying lore, and helping out at the adventurer's guild, but he's still only Bronze rank. Still, every day he delves into the dungeon and gives it his all. And then one day, when exploring an unknown area of a beginner dungeon called the “Watermoon Labyrinth,” he is eaten by a dragon. He thinks his life is over, but instead awakens to find himself in the form of a skeleton, the weakest monster of all. Instead of giving into despair, though, he starts to think about what he can do to change his fate. He uses the monster's power of “existence evolution” to try and get stronger and stronger, and one day become human once more. Rentt, now an undead, resumes his journey to become a Mythril rank adventurer.

The series will debut on January 8 on AT-X, Tokyo MX, and Sun TV. The show will then air on BS NTV on January 9. The show will stream in Japan on d Anime Store and Netflix starting on January 5.

Being reborn once may sound impressive, but Rishe is already on her seventh time around! She has had all kinds of excitement in her previous lives, from peddling goods as a merchant to locking blades as a knight, so now she's determined to kick back and enjoy. But to savor the high life, she first has to marry the handsome prince…the same one who happens to be her murderer! It will take six-plus lifetimes of experience and skills for Rishe to break the time loop and make her extravagant dreams come true!
