In January 2020 the anime adaptation of Plunderer will start airing on Japanese TV. The main visual for the series has been released, which shows many of the characters lined up before a dark background, which looks like a city that is on fire. A third trailer has also been released, which introduces the characters Jail Murdoch (voiced by Yuichiro Umehara) and Nana (voiced by Shizuka Ito). Right after the video there is an interview with the two voice actors, where they talk about their impressions of the anime and the characters they are voicing and what would happen if they were born in the world of Plunderer.
Plunderer is an upcoming anime based on a manga by Suu Minazuki. It is set in a world where numbers mean everything. Every person has a count and if it reaches zero, they are dragged into the abyss. When the count of the mother of the heroine Hina reaches zero, she manages to tell her daughter to look for the ‘Legendary Red Baron’. A heroic action fantasy story begins when she sets out to fulfill her quest and meets the swordsman Licht.
