New anime started from Jul/2023.
Animated from a manga.
The story sets on a demon world where the demon king has been defeated by a human hero, and a martial arts tournament is held to select the next demon king.
In the 1st episode, the organizer of the tournament finds out that a human hero's brother is mixed in with the top competitors, and tries seek his background.
Despite the suspenseful and mysterious setting, the story is told in an up-tempo and gaggy manner, making us enjoyable to watch further.
The original manga has been completed in 12 volumes, which can be covered by 25-26 episodes of anime.
It is unclear how far the story will go in this season, but hope to see the story through to its conclusion.
