An anime adaptation of The Exiled Heavy Knight Knows How to Game the System (Tsuihou sareta Tensei Juukishi wa Game Chishiki de Musou suru) has been officially announced!
The series began as a manga in 2022 from writer-artist duo Necoco and Lee Brocco. Necoco is known for their past writing work on titles such as Reincarnated as a Dragon Hatchling, Saikyou Juzoku Tensei: Majutsu Otaku no Risoukyou, and more. Meanwhile Lee Brocco is known for his work on Gokudou Parasites and contributing to an ecchi anthology.
You can check out the trailer below.
The series follows Elma Edvan, a young man in a fantasy world who receives memories of his past life. He remembers his current world as the world of an MMORPG he used to play. When he receives his divine blessing and the job of “Heavy Knight”, his family disavows him, thinking it’s a weak class. However Elma knows the secret to unlocking the Heavy Knight’s potential and will actually become surprisingly strong!
Along the way he meets others with seemingly weak jobs and helps them bring out their best potential.
The series is the latest from GoHands, an anime studio perhaps most famous for working on Seitokai Yakuindomo.
The series is expected to premiere some time in 2026.
