An anime adaptation based on the Grancrest Senki light novel was announced during the Fantasia Bunko Big Thanksgiving 2016 event, which was held on Saturday. The announcement was also discussed with a representative from Aniplex.

Synopsis
On a continent ruled by chaos, the Lords have the power of a holy seal that can calm the chaos and protect the people. However, before anyone realizes it, the rulers cast aside their creed of purifying the chaos, and instead start to fight each other for each other's holy seals to gain dominion over one another. Shiruuka, an isolated mage who scorns the Lords for abandoning their creed, and a wandering knight named Theo, who is on a journey to train to one day liberate his hometown, make an everlasting oath to work together to reform this continent dominated by wars and chaos. (Source: ANN, edited)

Grancrest Senki is written by Ryou Mizuno and illustrated by Miyuu. It began publishing under the Fujimi Fantasia Bunko label in August 2013 and currently has seven volumes in print, with the eighth volume to be released on November 19. A manga adaptation by Makoto Yotsuba began serialization in Young Animal magazine in June 2016.

Hmm I heard of the title before, never got invested into it. Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if A-1 ended up being the studio either.

Uhm... I came to read the comments hoping to find someone familiar with this novel series to ask him about it. Zut.

Great! I thought about this possibility when the manga was announced, it can't be a bad thing that another work of Mizuno gets animated ! (it makes the wait for a new western translation of the Lodoss novels less unbearable).

PS: it's sad to see that the author's name alone isn't enough to ignite stronger reactions.

Place your bets on this being adapted by A1. If that's the case, I couldn't care less about this.

Sounds like a good fantasy ride. I'll be happy as long as it is not another A-1 Pictures work.

I don't see any ecchi tags which means I'm still listening to you, source material. Now keep talking and tell me about the studio that will be adapting you...
