Teenage Mercenary Webtoon Gets Animated Adaptation

Post by Ojisama » 19 Jun 2025, 11:07

Details are sketchy at the moment, but LINE manga has confirmed that an animated adaptation of the popular webtoon is on the way.

At the age of eight, Yu Ijin (Sōma Tatewaki in Japanese version) lost his parents in a plane crash and became stranded in a foreign land, forced to become a child mercenary in order to stay alive. He returns home ten years later to be reunited with his family in Korea, where food and shelter are plenty and everything seems peaceful. But Ijin will soon learn that life as a teenager is a whole other feat of survival. With only one year of high school left, Ijin must master new tactics to maneuver his way around the schoolhouse battleground. Can he survive a year of high school? Or rather, will the school be able to survive him?
To those just starting on the journey of life I say...
Bang your own drum. Walk your own path. Live wildly. Love fiercely. 
As you near the end, look back with no regrets.
