In his younger years, he dreamed of glory as a master swordsman, but those days are long behind him. Out of the blue, he receives a visit from a famous former pupil who brings him world-shattering news—he's been appointed as a special instructor for the knights of the Liberion Order! With his life now turned upside down, Beryl travels to the capital and reunites with some of his former students: elite knights, an ace wizard, and even an adventurer who's attained the highest guild rank possible. But why do they all want his tutelage?! As far as he's concerned, they clearly don't need him anymore. Can Beryl live up to his new position? And will he ever get a moment's peace away from his adoring students?!

| @desusama eh, it's just boring to always credit the same anime, like Fairy Tail and Naruto, and Tsukimichi seems more fitting (and still popular enough) for that type of anime ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |

| @DatRandomDude Fair point. They have enough work in their bag to mix it up from time to time. Can't wait to see how they score this story in particular. |

| this looks good, hope i'm not playing myself up |
| This sounds to be my type of anime. Looking forward to Spring 2025. |
For your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him. And honour your parents. If one or both of them reach old age in your care, never say to them ˹even˺ ‘ugh,’ nor yell at them. Rather, address them respectfully. And be humble with them out of mercy, and pray, “My Lord! Be merciful to them as they raised me when I was young.” (Holy Quran 17:23-24). |
