It has been announced that the TV anime "A Genius Healer Who Healed in an Instant but Was Banished for Useless, Living Happily as a Dark Healer (Dark Healer)," based on the light novel by Sakaku Hishikawa, who is popular on the Shosetsuka ni Naro posting site "Let's Become a Novelist," will be broadcast on TOKYO MX and other stations from April 3rd. It has also been announced that Nakajima Yuki will appear as Krishna, Yashiro Taku as Sonde, and Mizunaka Masaaki as Aston as additional cast members. The band "bokula." will perform the opening theme (OP) "Light Maker."
Nakajima, who plays Krishna, the vice commander of the Imperial Guard known as the Iron Rose, commented, "Congratulations on the anime adaptation! I'm happy to be able to be involved in such a wonderful production as Krishna! Krishna is the vice commander of the Imperial Guard, and a strict girl, but as the story progresses, you will see a lot of her true self! Please look forward to the broadcast to see how she interacts with Zenos and the others."
Yashiro, who plays Sonde, the younger brother of Zofia, the leader of the Lizardmen, said, "This character mainly appears as a patient of the main character, Zenos, but Zenos saves not only Sonde, but many other characters as well. I personally think that the highlights are not only how he physically heals wounds with his own abilities, but also how his personality saves the hearts and positions of others. I hope everyone enjoys watching the series."
Mizunaka, who plays Aston, the leader of the party to which Zenos belonged, said, "A lot of fascinating characters will appear, including Zenos. I can't wait to see them talk and move. Aston is also a strong character, so please look forward to seeing how he becomes involved in the story! Please look forward to the broadcast of the anime!"
The main PV using the OP was released on YouTube. It depicts Zenos, who was expelled from the adventurer party, fighting on the front lines despite being a healer. Ei, the vocalist of bokula., commented, "First of all, congratulations on the anime adaptation! One of the things I wanted to achieve was an anime song. I felt that the depiction of the protagonist Zenos' loneliness strongly applied to me, so I was able to compose the song by reading the story carefully and getting close to his emotions. I think it was a big promotion to be able to put the life of a person into the sound, rather than just 'music that creates a synergistic effect with the anime'...? I feel a little proud of myself for that. Please look forward to it. I'm very happy that they chose us to be the stage for another beginning."
It was also announced that Nakajima, who plays Krishna, will be appearing at the advance screening to be held at Shinjuku Piccadilly (Shinjuku Ward, Tokyo) on March 2nd, in addition to Shogo Sakata, who plays Zenos, Miharu Hanai, who plays Lili, and Yoko Hikasa, who plays Carmilla.
The work is a light novel written by Hishikawa and illustrated by Dub Ryu. It depicts the exploits of a genius healer who was kicked out of his party. After being unjustly kicked out, Zenos, a genius healer, meets an injured elf girl named Lili and opens a clinic as an unlicensed dark healer. The story unfolds as follows. Seven volumes have been published by GA Novel (SB Creative), and the comic adaptation is also gaining popularity. The anime will be directed by Yoshizaki Yuzuru, known for "Kiyoneko", and produced by Macaria, known for "Dropkick on My Devil!- End of the Century".
