Madan no Ou to Vanadis
With seven volumes published, Media Factory has announced that an anime adaptation of Madan no Ou to Vanadis has been given the green light. The novel series, which began in 2011, is written by Tsukasa Kawaguchi with illustrations by Yoshi☆yo while the manga adaptation that began later is done by Nobuhiko Yanai. There are no details about the production at this stage beyond that it’s been given approval, but with seven volumes to work with, there’s a good bit of material for the animation to work through that could give it a couple of seasons.
Plot concept: Set in Western Europe during times of war, Eleanor “Ellen” Vertalia, one of the Vanadis of Zhcted, leads the battle into Brune. There are, in fact, seven Vanadis, named for having each received a powerful weapon from the dragon to individually reign over seven territories. The power of the Vanadis invokes dread and fear from their enemies. An earl in the service of the country of Brune, a young archer by the name of Tigre, experienced the Vandis’s power firsthand after being defeated on the battlefield by Ellen. However, Ellen chose to spare his life after witnessing his skills, but in exchange, he is asked to serve her.
