‘Saikyo Onmyouji’ Anime Series Prepares for a January 2023 Debut

Kiichi Kosuzu’s Saikyo Onmyouji no Isekai Tenseiki recently announced an anime adaptation, and we’re in for a double isekai this time.

I called it a double isekai as, unlike the usual, Saikyo Onmyouji’s protagonist Haruyoshi goes from one fantasy world to another. Instead of being from the real world, Haruyoshi belongs to another realm and gets reincarnated in a different one.

Since fans learned about this slightly unusual story, they’ve been waiting for the franchise to reveal more information, and today’s the day.

Saikyo Onmyouji no Isekai Tenseiki anime’s official website has revealed its January 2023 premiere with a fantastic trailer.

After being betrayed by his friends, the greatest diviner Haruyoshi enchants himself with a reincarnation spell. This results in Haruyoshi’s rebirth as Seika Lamprogue, who is from a wizard family in another world.

Despite being the world’s strongest diviner, Seika is declared to have no affinity for magic. He figures out how this world’s magic is much weaker than his, says that he doesn’t need magic, and lives a peaceful life with his onmyou arts.

Moreover, the franchise has revealed a brilliant cast lineup for the upcoming anime, so let’s check them out:

I’m pretty sure you all noticed the sick animation and detailing in the teaser. From Haruyoshi’s last moments to Seika, Efa, and Amu fighting yokai and monsters, the whole thing had perfection written all over it.
