The Holy Grail of Eris, a series of light novels by Kujira Tokiwa, is getting the anime treatment. The novels, which kicked off in 2017, are about a noblewoman who teams up with the ghost of a villainess.
The series will star Kana Ichinose as Constance Grail (aka Connie) and Sayumi Suzushiro as Scarlett Castiel, reprising the roles from a drama CD.
The news of the anime adaptation was greeted with illustrations by Hinase Momoyama and S.Kosugi, who illustrate the manga adaptation and its sequel, respectively.
Here’s how Yen Press describes the story of The Holy Grail of Eris:
Connie is a young noblewoman whose only standout quality is her sincerity. Maybe that’s why she loses her fiancée and gets framed for a crime in the span of one night. Just as all hope seems lost, the ghost of an infamous villainess who was executed years ago possesses her and clears her name. With her incomparable charisma and intelligence, the spirit of Scarlet Castiel turns the tables in the blink of an eye. In return, Connie insists that she help uncover the truth surrounding her new benefactor’s untimely death and a conspiracy that continues to this very day!
