"Krebates - The King of the Beasts, the Baby, and the Corpse Hero" TV anime to air in 2025, with Saya Aizawa playing the role of "Baby"

It has been announced that the TV anime "Klebates - The King of the Beasts, the Baby, and the Corpse Hero", based on the manga by Yuji Iwahara, currently being serialized on the web manga service "LINE Manga", will be broadcast in 2025. Additional cast members have also been announced, including Saya Aizawa, who will play Luna. The first key visual featuring Alicia, Crenn, and Luna has also been released. Aizawa said, "I will be playing the 'baby' as the title suggests. For now, I started by touching babies a lot. It was very difficult to solidify the direction of my performance while consulting with the director, fine-tuning it to fit the brutal, realistic world view while still retaining the cuteness of the animation. How will a helpless baby join the story in such a world, and what is Luna in the first place? I hope you will look forward to the broadcast." The story follows Alicia, who has dreamed of becoming a hero since she was a child, as one of 13 heroes chosen by the king to defeat the Demon Beast King Crebates, but her reckless bravery brings about a terrible crisis that could wipe out all of humanity on the continent of Edsea. A baby entrusted to the Demon Beast King becomes the only hope left in the world. Taguchi Kiyotaka, who has worked on many special effects films such as the "Ultraman" series, will try his hand at directing an anime for the first time, and the film will be produced by Lay-duce. ◇Cast (titles omitted): Alicia: Shiraishi Haruka; Klenn: Tamura Mutsumi; Crebates: Nakamura Yuichi; Luna: Aizawa Saya
