 Publishing company Overlap announced a television anime adaptation of Dozeumaru's Genjitsu Shugi Yuusha no Oukoku Saikenki (How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom) light novel on Friday.Synopsis O, Hero! When Kazuya Souma is unexpectedly transported to another world, he knows the people expect a hero. But Souma's idea of heroism is more practical than most—he wants to rebuild the flagging economy of the new land he's found himself in! Betrothed to the princess and abruptly planted on the throne, this realist hero must gather talented people to help him get the country back on its feet—not through war, or adventure, but with administrative reform! (Source: Seven Seas Entertainment) Dozeumaru originally published the administrative fantasy novel on the Shousetsuka ni Narou website in 2015 before switching to Pixiv the following year. Overlap began publishing the novel with illustrations by Fuyuki in May 2016. Satoshi Ueda launched a manga adaptation on the Comic Gardo website in July 2017. Overlap will publish the 12th novel volume and the fifth manga volume on April 25. The light novel and manga volumes combined have a cumulative 800,000 copies in print. J-Novel Club and Seven Seas Entertainment licensed the light novel in English in February and November 2017 for digital and physical release, respectively. The tenth e-book volume was released last October, while the sixth physical volume shipped on Tuesday. J-Novel Club is also publishing the manga digitally in English and released the third volume on January 29.

| Well it just matter of time. Though I sense some rushed adaptation already. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| Sweet! Really like this series |
| Best seller of J novel series |
 |
| Literal this again https://myanimelist.net/news/59587478 is reselling you to the same characters, only here the girl is another Saber face, so she doesn't even stand out in aesthetically, even if I was such a shallow watcher could't be interested in this |
| Well this was within my expectations Seems like all the popular novels are gonna receive anime announcements this year |
| It would be a good novel if it didn't have the word "Realist" in the title, but since it has, it's just a mediocre story, with bland characters and Deus Ex Machina all the way through. I can already imagine that it'll get an score of 5 or 6 in here. |
| >harem no thx , skip |

How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom Go on...When Kazuya Souma is unexpectedly transported to another world (...) Stop going on. There's so much of this garbage words "transported to another world" make me cringe just from seeing them. How come country with such rich folklore can't come up with fantasy stories that are not fucking isekai or VR games... |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| This is mainly just an SOL story like Ascendance of bookworm but instead of crafting books, he is crafting a systematize nation. Not much to say about conflicts since the enemies are too one dimensional so it focuses more on the diplomatic sides of the aftermath. |
 |
| Plot's kinda interesting. Worth a try I guess. |
| I'm a bit skeptical but I will wait for more |
| In before... -Fans hype this adaptation to be really good. -LN is adaptated by a bad sudio and the animation is lacking while the story is shown to be generic then we expected. -Turns into a mess of a basic isekai that can be compared to the other hundreds of isekais that already exist. -Once the anime has finish it will likely be forgetten as many more Isekais and big titles come along. It's the same repeat and again cycle anime fans go through. It Never changes. |

| @NG_Chloe @YorukaWaifu the premise is an ornament that does not influence anything, because that all this is just about another beta MC somehow gathering a harem. |
| Reading the synopsis.. i think i've read either the novel or the manga before, uo to a certain point... I lean more to the manga since i can actually remember when the throne was forced on him.. Except That there might be some mistakes on my side and i was actually remembering another story. Lol. XD Anyway. I'll decide whether to watch this or not later. After more information revealed. |
 I'm starting to get embarrassed by my own forum signature line.. XD |
| This actually one of my favorite isekai light novel in terms of world-building. But well, never believe anime adaptation anymore, we'll just see. |
| Sounds interesting on paper, but you can bet on some half assed execution and shit pacing to ruin any potential this may have. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| I read the novel a bit and dropped it ... the MC is the typical boy who knows everything and all works out for him. There are no moments of tension and as a leader, he does not apply its authority, they can rebel against him but he will forgive the instigators because she is the new harem member. |
| All the I'm reading is getting an adaption now? Eh I'm not expecting much out of this tho |
| >Realist protag >LN shouldnt this be a sin already that the author decided to put this words in the same place, time and existence? |

Um excuse you, do other trash LN adaptations include the law of diminishing returns I didn't think so I rest my case #embarrassing #pawned |
 |
| Really looking forward to this one~ The novels are pretty great and the characters are all done really well, as well~!X3 |
   |
| This anime is the style I like, I have high expectations. |
| Apaixonado por jogos e animes. |
Gustavo_jonez said: Isekai is a just a genre yet people hate it so much Yeah, but that's because of overexposition. If we did not get half a dozen isekais per season, and with most of them looking like the same, no one would be complaining (a lot). 1990's had isekais as well (Fushigi Yuugi, Escaflowne, Digimon 1, Rayearth), and no one complained. They were few and actually easy to tell apart from each other. |
| FGO NA Code: 482.072.599 (F2P thug life of savings...) Ben-to! best nonsensical action anime. Ever. |
Cordantheman said: RayReynolds said: another beta MC somehow gathering a harem. Ummm...this is incorrect. The idea that he is a beta is false based on his success as a leader of a country. While, granted, his success can be questioned because it's a fantasy story and bias from the author is a factor. An "alpha" is not determined by 'strength and aggression" alone. That's because the same survival tactics used to progress in one environment do not always work in every environment. Humans are also social creatures and because of that adaptation is based on group survival rather than individual survival. There is a such a thing as a "submissive alpha" which is more common in matriarchal societies but gender roles in human society are more complicated than you are assuming. This character is a full-fledged archetype of a typical anime protagonist. I need a minimal feature that sets it apart from other idiots. |
