The anime series stars:

The anime will premiere in July on Tokyo MX and BS Asahi.

KOHTA YAMAMOTO feat. Shun Ikegai performs the opening theme song “Ctrl C.”

Happinet specifically said that the anime is adapting a manga adaptation of the original light novel series. Happinet describes the story:

Ike is known as “the strongest magician in the demon king's army” and is a master at conquering fortresses.

The way he takes down enemies with his immense magic is truly a “monster” that terrifies both allies and enemies alike.

However, he has a secret that he cannot tell the other demons.

“–I am truly human.”

Aiming for coexistence between demons and humans while the leader of the demon army is hiding the fact that he is actually a human!?

Hata (The Reformation of the World Overseen by a Realist Demon King, A Boy Raised by the Gods Will Be the Strongest) posted the story on the Shōsetsuka ni Narō website in February 2019. 2016 and the latest update was in November 2022. Futabasha published the fifth novel volume in April 2018.

Anajiro launched a manga adaptation in 2019 and the manga runs on Futabasha's Gaugau Monster website. The manga's 10th compiled book volume was published on January 30.
