Reincarnation Isekai stories are nothing new in the world of manga and anime. In recent years, however, there has been a surge of the sub-genre with shows like Konosuba: God's Blessing On This Wonderful World and That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime.
Both of the aforementioned titles have found unmitigated success in any mediums they've tackled, whether they be print, animation, or even video game adaptations. Now the latter of them is helping promote an upcoming reincarnation isekai show with a crossover collaboration for She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man.
Although She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man isn't set to debut on Funimation until January of 2022, there have already been multiple trailers released to drum up excitement for the new show. If that wasn't enough, the following imagery of Mira swapping clothing with That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime's Rimuru Tempest is bound to get isekai fans to notice.
There have been two trailers released so far and Funimation has now shared imagery from a brand new promo. We've taken the liberty of listing the images in a short gallery below so you can preview the art style and characters that are coming alongside the release of She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man.
What are your thoughts on these images? Are you excited for the That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime crossover collaboration art that is being used to promote the new series?
Regardless of your thoughts, be sure to share them in the usual spot, and if you haven't checked it out yet, give the trailer and synopsis for She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man a peek below!
The story follows avid VRMMORPG player Sakimori Kagami, who redesigns his sagely character danblf as a young girl one night on a whim. So when he suddenly wakes up in the world of Arch Earth Online, he—or rather she—is forced to assume the identity of Mira, and convince the world that she is the pupil of “his past self” that disappeared 30 years prior.
When Kagami Sakimori mysteriously wakes up in his favorite MMO game, he's not in the body of his ultra-powerful character, but instead is a young girl! It's almost time for the great sage Danblf's "student" to show the world what she's made of!
She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man will debut on Funimation in January 2022.
