The official Twitter of the HJ Bunko label announced on Thursday that an anime project for Fuminori Teshima's Maou no Ore ga Dorei Elf wo Yome ni Shitanda ga, Dou Medereba Ii? (An Archdemon's Dilemma: How to Love Your Elf Bride) light novel is in progress.

Synopsis
When the sorcerer Zagan decides to participate in an auction selling the goods of the now dead Archdemon Marchosias, he expects to find items of untold power. What he finds instead is a rare white-haired slave elf named Nephilia, and he immediately spends all his money to purchase her, much to the bewilderment of those around him. However, the secret reason behind Zagan's investment was that he had actually fallen in love with her at first sight.

Unfortunately, Zagan has a problem: he is socially inept and has no idea how to express his true feelings, leading to many misunderstandings between him and his new companion. But slowly, the two begin to understand each other, and love begins to bloom. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Teshima's fantasy romance light novel began under Hobby Japan's HJ Bunko imprint in February 2017, featuring illustrations by COMTA (Isekai Mahou wa Okureteru!). Hobby Japan shipped the 15th volume on June 1, with the 16th volume scheduled to be released on November 1.

Hako Itagaki began a manga adaptation in the Comic Fire magazine in February 2018. Hobby Japan shipped the eighth volume on April 1, with the ninth volume scheduled also scheduled for a November 1 release.

J-Novel Club licensed both the novel and manga digitally in English in June 2018 and December 2018, respectively. The 14th novel volume was released on August 4, while the eighth manga volume was released on October 12.

For people who are concerned about the slave thing the MC got her because he wanted to free her because he was in a similar situation to her but due to plot spoiler reasons it takes him awhile to get the keys he pretty much tells her she can go wherever she wants after he gets the collar off her and she doesn't have to stay with him but she choses to because her family threw her away and he never forces her into anything the slave thing is more of a plot point and common connection between the leads than anything else

it's not isekai. it's not slave. the zagan free her from slave contract as soon as he could. your whole sentence is wrong. this is closer to ancient magus bride, than shield hero.

Finally! This is great news. The manga was great.
Yes, it isn't isekai but more like a fantasy series.
No, don't even make fantasy series is equal to isekai, that's just being narrow minded.

This looks just like Shield Hero, but without the isekai.

People now call any fantasy isekai. But this does not negate the fact that this is again romance with slaves.
