An Archdemon’s Dilemma – How to Love Your Elf Bride Light Novels Have Anime in the Works
Novel series about socially awkward evil sorcerer launched in 2017
The official Twitter account of Hobby Japan‘s Comic Fire magazine announced on Thursday that an anime adaptation of Fuminori Teshima‘s An Archdemon’s Dilemma – How to Love Your Elf Bride light novel series is in the works.
Hobby Japan published the light novel series’ first volume in Japan in February 2017, and will publish the 16th volume on November 1.
J-Novel Club is releasing the light novel in English. The company published the light novel’s first volume in November 2019, and will publish the 13th volume on November 1. It describes the story:
Zagan is a super powerful sorcerer, but lives as a recluse. And now he faces his greatest test… falling in love!
Zagan is feared by the masses as an evil sorcerer. Both socially awkward and foulmouthed, he spends his days studying sorcery while beating down any trespassers within his domain. One day he’s invited to a dark auction, and what he finds there is an elven slave girl of peerless beauty, Nephy. Having fallen in love at first sight, Zagan uses up his entire fortune to purchase her, but being a poor conversationalist, he has no idea how to properly interact with her. Thus, the awkward cohabitation of a sorcerer who has no idea how to convey his love and his slave who yearns for her master but has no idea how to appeal to him begins.
Hako Itagaki launched the light novel’s manga adaptation on Comic Fire in February 2018. Hobby Japan published the manga’s first compiled book volume in August 2018, and will publish the ninth volume on November 1.
J-Novel Club published the manga’s first compiled book volume in English digitally in July 2021, and published the eighth volume on October 12.

Azuki announced on Tuesday that it will digitally publish NAZ and Masato Fujisaki‘s Gloomy Bear: Apocalyptic Love manga based on Mori Chack’s Gloomy Bear character in English on April 4. The one-shot manga will be available on Azuki‘s website as well as on its iOS and Android applications.
Azuki describes the manga’s story:
A young man and woman have kept keychains as mementos of each other, even after they drifted apart. But one day, when they find themselves under attack by zombies, the keychains come to life to protect them! Can Gloomy Bear and All-Purpose Bunny defeat the zombies and bring the two back together?
Mori Chack created the Gloomy Bear character in 2000. The illustrator also created characters such as Podolly and Kumakikai.
The Itazura Guma no Gloomy (Gloomy the Naughty Grizzly) television anime series premiered in April 2021. The anime celebrated the 20th anniversary of the character. Mori had released a “trial” animated short for the character in 2014.
