Hiroshi Tamada directed the anime at Felix Film and is scheduled to air in 2025
Kodoani.com – “Yūsha Party o Tsuihō Sareta Shiro Madōshi” (The White Mage Who was Banished From the Hero's Party is Picked Up by an S-Rank Adventurer: This White Mage is Too Out of the Ordinary) is about to be adapted into an anime and is expected to air on television in 2025. Adapted from the novel of the same name by Sora Suigetsu and DeeCHA, this fantasy-filled work is receiving great attention from the fan community.
The story follows Lloyd, a white mage who specializes in using support magic. Despite his important role in the hero team, Lloyd was underestimated and banished. However, during a mission, he accidentally accompanied a group of S-class adventurers. From here, Lloyd gradually discovered his extraordinary talent. Although he always thought of himself as just an ordinary person, Lloyd quickly became the center of attention, not only because of his strength but also because of his sincerity and unyielding spirit.
Leading this anime project is director Hiroshi Tamada, who has experience working on many famous works such as The Heroic Legend of Arslan OVA. The script will be written by Akihiko Inari, who participated in Saving 80,000 Gold in Another World for My Retirement, and the character design will be done by Yūta Itō, ensuring smoothness and vividness in each frame.
The origin of the series comes from the website Shōsetsuka ni Narō in 2020, where Sora Suigetsu launched the novel. The work was later published as a light novel by Futabasha and was quickly warmly received by readers. Wasabi Mukuno's manga adaptation has also contributed to expanding the appeal of this work, with eight volumes already released.
The story's appeal lies not only in Lloyd's journey to assert himself but also in the way the author skillfully builds relationships between characters and exploits the “normal but unusual” side of Lloyd. With the participation of a talented production team, the anime promises to bring emotional and satisfying experiences to fans. Get ready for Lloyd's inspiring story as he overcomes his fate to shine on his new journey!
