The TV anime Krebates—The King of the Beasts, the Baby, and the Corpse Hero is scheduled to air in July 2025. To accompany it, episode visuals that foreshadow the story have been released, along with a short story by the original author, Yuji Iwahara.
“Krebates The King of the Beasts, the Baby, and the Corpse Hero” is the first full-scale high fantasy by Yuji Iwahara, known for “The King of Thorns” and “Dimension W,” currently being serialized on “LINE Manga.” Alicia, who has admired heroes since childhood, is one of the 13 heroes chosen by the king. The heroes take up the legendary sword and defeat the Beast King Krebates.
However, their bravery led to the worst crisis that could wipe out the entire human race on the continent of Edsea. The only hope left is a baby entrusted to the Beast King. Will the story be about an apocalypse at the world’s end or a childcare diary for a new era? A new “MF Comics Alive+ Series” edition will begin publication on July 5th.
The TV anime of this work will feature a talented cast of leading actors, including Shiraishi Haruka as Alicia, Tamura Mutsumi as Klenn, and Nakamura Yuichi as Klevates. The broadcast schedule has now been decided, and it has been revealed that the series will begin in July 2025.
The first episode visual has also been released. It shows Toara tenderly watching over her child (Luna) shortly after giving birth. The visual also includes a short story by Iwahara Yuji. The whole story is below. “He’s a lively boy, Your Highness.” “Oh, my dear boy… I’ll protect you.” “His Majesty is also happy about the birth of the heir’s grandson.” “…Since I was born as the prince of Heiden, I can’t escape the fate of the hero legend and the furnace… I’ll try to do something before the naming ceremony…” “…Did you say something?” “No, nothing.”
