It has been announced that the light novel "I Woke Up with the Strongest Equipment and Spaceship, So I Want to Live Freely as a Mercenary and Aim for a Detached House," published by KADOKAWA BOOKS, will be adapted into a TV anime and will begin airing in October. Norihiko Nagahama will direct, and studio A-CAT will produce the anime. Makoto Furukawa will play the main character Hiro, Konomi Inagaki Inagaki will play Mimi, who adores Hiro, Anna Nagase will play his reliable partner Elma, and Haruka Shiraishi will play Serena Halls, a marquis's daughter and soldier. A teaser visual and teaser PV have also been released.
This work is a light novel written by Ryuto and illustrated by Tetsuhiro Nabeshima. When office worker Takahiro Sato wakes up, he finds himself in the world of a sci-fi game he was obsessed with, thrown into space with his beloved mecha. He travels the universe, rescuing girls, flirting, earning money as a mercenary, and more... It's a thrilling sci-fi story in which he freely enjoys life, even using his game knowledge in a ruthless way. The comic adaptation has also gained popularity, and the series has sold approximately 1.8 million copies in total.
Furukawa commented, "He's striving to live the life of a space mercenary, aiming for a detached house with a garden (and carbonated drinks)! I'm incredibly envious of him as a man, as he gains fame while never forgetting his perfect sense of being an ordinary person. I hope you'll also enjoy the fresh combination of reincarnation and science fiction. Please watch it with a cola in hand! Thank you!"
Original author Ryuto said, "I've been playing games and writing novels, and now it's finally being made into an anime! This is truly the ultimate reward for an author. I did it! I can't wait to see Hiro and the others come to life and talk. Please look forward to this work, which is written as SF but read as Space Fantasy!"
