The popular light novel series 'Isekai Tensei Soudouki' (Otherworldly Reincarnation Uproar Record) will receive a TV anime adaptation. The series has sold over 1.35 million copies across print and digital formats.

His body houses three souls: his own, a miserly Sengoku-era warlord named Saina, and a modern-day high school otaku named Masaharu. The warlord's soul hones Bald's martial and mercantile skills, while the otaku's modern knowledge leads to inventions and profit.

The original novel is written by Takami Ryosen and published by Alphapolis. The manga adaptation is illustrated by Honoji. The anime's official website and X (formerly Twitter) account have launched for future updates.

In related news, the 14th volume of the manga adaptation is scheduled for release on March 16. A new official website for the original novel series has also opened.
