©赤井まつり・オーバーラップ/暗殺者のステータスが勇者よりも強い製作委員会A new main trailer for the My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s anime series has been unveiled, alongside the announcement of the show’s premiere on October 6 JST (effectively October 7 at 1:30 AM JST).
Additionally, it has been revealed that BONNIE PINK‘s “Like Gravity” will serve as the ending theme song.
My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s draws inspiration from the Overlap Bunko series crafted by Matsuri Akai and illustrated by Tozai, which made its debut in November 2017, with its fifth volume set to be released on September 25, 2025 JST. Seven Seas Entertainment describes the storyline as follows:
Oda Akira is the type of person who tends to blend into the background. His inconspicuous demeanor proves beneficial when his entire class gets transported to a fantasy realm, allowing him to naturally assume the role of a quiet assassin. With remarkably high initial stats and a plethora of puzzling details that don’t add up, Akira suspects something amiss. However, delving into royal secrets can be perilous, and when he uncovers a sinister plot, he unwittingly makes a formidable enemy— the very king who summoned him to this realm! With assistance from the elven spirit medium Amelia, can he discover the strength to rectify the situation and achieve his revenge?
My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s began its journey as a Shosetsuka ni Naro web novel in January 2017, and it is also available as a manga.
