Kodnasha revealed two days ago that an anime adaptation of Kyōhei Koyama's "Eiyū" Kaitai ("Heroes" Dismissed) is in development. Work on the project just began so it's unlikely to debut in time for the start of the Summer 2016 season. ZEXCS (Rental Magica, Say, I love you) is the studio handling animation. No further details were released about the project.
In 2014, Koyama's novel took home the "Kodansha BOX-AiR Newcomer of the Year Award" .
The story follows Uro Yamada, and a 17-year old girl named Karon, both members of the "Hero Retirement and Return to Everyday Life Assistance Agency." Their organization focuses on returning all those anime and manga heroes who're transported to alternate dimensions and far-off planets to rescue damsels and entire solar systems back to Earth. The problem for Uro is that Karon is a former hero herself and can't seem to shake her heroic urges.
With such an interesting premsie, Heroes Dismissed is sure to be an anime on everyone's must-watch list for whatever season it debuts. We'll keep you posted when additional details are released.
The story centers on a boy named Uro Yamada, and a 17-year-old girl named Karon. Both work as part of the "Hero Retirement and Return to Everyday Life Assistance Agency," which takes heroes from another world back to Earth and helps them reintegrate into everyday life. Karon, a former hero herself, works under Uro as they tackle cases and also lives with him, with Uro constantly failing to rein in Karon's hero-like behavior even as he tries to ingrain the behavior of common people into her.
