Don’t you just hate it when The Greatest Demon Lord is Reborn as a Typical Nobody? Or maybe you love it… I’m not sure how we’re supposed to feel about this title, but we have Myojin Katou’s fantasy light novel series to thank for it! Next up for the tale of Demon Lord Varvatos being reincarnated thousands of years in the future as a villager named Ard is a TV anime adaptation, which has now been confirmed for 2022.
Mirai Minato (The Great Jahy Will Not Be Defeated!) is directing the anime adaptation, with Takayuki Noguchi (Higehiro: After Being Rejected, I Shaved and Took in a High School Runaway) on character designs for the SILVER LINK and BLADE co-production.
Check out the teaser visual:
Yen Press publishes the light novels in English and describes them:
As the most powerful entity of all time, the Demon Lord Varvatos thinks life is a big fat snore. When he takes matters into his own hands and decides to reincarnate, he calibrates his magical strength to be perfectly average. But there is no way he could have predicted that everyone in the modern world would be weak as hell, which means he is totally overpowered once again! Reborn under the name Ard, he has ladies fawning over him, the royal family begging him to become the next king, and an ex-minion insisting on killing him?! But Ard has a one-track mind, and he won’t stop at anything to achieve his ultimate goal!
