A Wild Last Boss Appeared! Anime Adaptation Announced

The NBCUniversal Japan industry panel at Anime NYC today announced that a TV anime adaptation of Firehead and YahaKo's A Wild Last Boss Appeared! fantasy light novel series is in production, unveiling a "super" teaser visual and a commemorative illustration by YahaKo. Additional details about the project, such as staff, cast and release date, were not confirmed at the time of reporting. 'Super' Teaser Visual Commemorative Illustration Author Firehead commented on the announcement: The story is being turned into animation! It sounds so nice. I had hoped it would happen one day, but thought it would be in a distant world. But now, it's not just a fantasy in my brain that I can't show to anyone. Rufus and his friends will move, speak in animation and it can be shared with everyone in the real-world! I'm looking forward to that moment. And it is also thanks to all of you who have patiently supported us so that we have been able to come this far. Thank you so much!
