The air date of "The Legend of the Sacred Sword" has been confirmed in October, and Saori Hayami will play another protagonist, Serafina. In addition, Yuko Mihira, Shinano Shimoji, Kunitake Yuki, and Kubo Yuri will also appear. The latest promotional video has also been released.
This is an animated series created by Square Enix to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the game Legend of the Sacred Sword series. From the fourth installment of the Sacred Sword, released in 1999, one of the main scenes, the "Jewel Thief Edition", will be visualized.
Serafina is a smart and sociable girl whose protagonist Shilo (CV: Nobunaga Shimazaki) meets her on the road. In the original, the two did not meet because one of them was chosen as the main character, but in the anime version, Serafina appears as a character who helps Shiloh. In this announcement, the main visual map has also been changed to draw the version of Serafina. In addition, it was decided that Susumi would sing the opening theme song "Tear of Will".
With dreams of becoming a Grand Wizard, Mihei plays the teenage Bud of Shilo, who aspires to be the "master", while The onion swordsman Duel plays Kubo, the character of Shiloh's shy, taciturn cactus. Take care of at home.
Every character in the PV has a voice. The source of the opening theme song "Tear of Will" was also recorded.
Here are the comments from the crew.

Participating in the first animation of a beloved work made me both happy and nervous. After learning about the contents of the "Jewel Thief Edition" that will be visualized this time, I am really looking forward to seeing the unique settings, scenes, and movable characters in the anime. I want to do my best to convey the charm of the work in the animation.
Q2.Please give advice to all the fans who are looking forward to it.
Stay tuned for how the story of Jewel Thieves will be depicted in the anime. And even if you're new to the work here, I hope you'll be fully immersed in the worldview and charm of Legend of the Sacred Sword!

Because from the time of the release of the animation, there is a high impression from everyone's attention, and it is an honor to be able to participate in so many beloved works!
