Video game publisher Bandai Namco Entertainment's &CAST!!! smartphone application announced on Friday that Takahito Oosaki and Ikurou's fantasy web manga Haishin Yuusha (The Brave-Tuber) will receive a short anime adaptation. The series will be streamed on the &CAST!! and Production I.G's Anime Beans applications.
Synopsis
For the most part, Wisdaregidor is your typical fantasy world: monsters wreaking havoc, taverns packed with gung-ho adventurers, and a demon overlord looking to rule it all. But Wisdaregidor has one thing you'll never find in Middle-earth: the Internet! Zane and Kuku are two adventurers trying to build a fanbase. The pair will do whatever it takes to get more subscribers for their streamed videos, even if it means taking on the demon lord himself! (Source: Seven Seas Entertainment)
