imagine-nation S2018E05 - Main theme: Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsody

We feature "Death March to The Parallel World Rhapsody", an anime based on a web novel, airing from January 11. The original novel by Hiro Ainana, of the parallel universe adventure genre, has been serialized in the fiction posting site, "Shosetsuka ni Naro (Let's Become a Novelist)", since 2013. A manga adaptation came out in 2014, with over 2 million copies published in total between the novel and manga. As interest from overseas grows with the release of an English translation of the novel at the end of October 2017, we explore the parallel universe anime based on the web novel. The work is of the "parallel universe reincarnation" genre popular in Japan today. We introduce this TV anime that is based on a web novel!
