Writer Takahiro and illustrator Yohei Takemura’s Chained Soldier manga has an anime adaptation on the way, and now a date has been put in place. According to the official Twitter account, the series is set to premiere in Japan on January 4, 2024.
This follows an earlier delay that moved the anime out of 2023. When Chained Soldier debuts, it will also stream on HIDIVE as it airs in Japan.
Yen Press releases the Chained Soldier manga—which is serialized in Japan in Shueisha’s digital Shonen Jump+ magazine—in English and describes it like so:
Decades ago, gates to an otherworldly and dangerous dimension known as Mato—the “Demon City”—appeared across Japan. Those who partook in the “peaches” growing there gained unique abilities—but only if they’re girls. When down-in-the-dumps high school boy Yuuki Wakura finds himself caught up in a gate, he’s saved by Kyouka Uzen, the beautiful commander of the 7th squad of the Demon Defense Force, who…orders him to become her slave?!
