The Raven Does Not Choose its Master

Post by Ojisama » 01 Feb 2024, 15:37

Adapted from the light novel series, Karasu wa Aruji o Erabanai, and expected to debut in April. The books center on the world of the yatagarasu (the Japanese name for a variant of mythical god-crows that appear in East Asian folk mythologies). The yatagarasu are able to shape shift between human and crow forms, and live in the world of Yamauchi, a parallel world created by the yatagarasu god Yamagami. Within Yamauchi, the yatagarasu live in a society evoking Heian-era Japan, and the parallel world remains connected to our human world.

Yamauchi, a fantastic world where the Yatagarasu live.

Yukiya, a young Yatagarasu, is appointed as the personal attendant of the eccentric Crown Prince Wakamiya. Soon, he is entangled in a web of conspiracies attempting to overthrow the heir to the Imperial throne.

Next novel in the series "The Golden Crow" has an adaptation that will debut July 20.

CRUNCHYROLL has been streaming the 1st series, so I expect they will have picked this up as well.
