It was announced that Kakeru Kobashiri’s The Dawn of the Witch novel series will receive a television anime adaptation! Unfortunately, there is no further information on when the anime will air; however, a promotional video was released for the novel back in 2019.
Kakeru Kobashiri was also responsible for the Grimoire of Zero series.
The Dawn of the Witch is described as follows:
After five hundred years of conflict between the church and witches, a peace was made a few years ago. But in the shadows, the residue of the conflict still lingers in many parts of the world. Saville, a failed student at the Royal School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the Kingdom of Wenias, has lost his memory of what happened before he entered the school. At the behest of President Albus, he is sent on a special training mission to the southern part of the continent, where the anti-witch faction is strong. Accompanying him are a number of people with strong personalities, such as Lo Christus, a witch of the dawn who wants access to the forbidden Book of Zero, which tells the beginning of magic, Holt, a brilliant girl, and Kudoh, the school’s only beastfallen. And what is the truth that they will encounter in the south–?
