 The NHK Anime World news blog has revealed that French comic Radiant by Tony Valente will get a TV anime. The series will be broadcast via NHK ETV in Fall 2018.Synopsis Seth is an aspiring sorcerer from the Pompo Hills area. Like all wizards, he is an "infected," one of the few living beings who survived the contact of the Nemesis—creatures fallen from the sky that contaminate and decimate all those they touch. Being immune to them, Seth wants to become a Hunter and fight the Nemesis. But more than that, Seth wants to engage in a quest that goes beyond the simple hunt for monsters. He wants to find the Radiant, their presumed cradle. Aided by a faction of fellow sorcerers, he travels the world in search of the Radiant, under the harsh scrutiny of the Inquisition.

I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| "French Comic" Eh, no thanks but i would stick with the nippon ones. |
 |
| A French comic, huh? But it'll be animated by Studio Lerche. I like Studio Lerche, and I hope this one will be good. |
| Interesting to choose a French comic. Has to mean the source material is at least good. The synopsis sounds intriguing and the studio look good. |
| Is this the first step for anime to start going global and seek world domination? :o |
  |
| OH great. Lerche will do this one. I'm liking the manga - and there's even a Japanese version - so I'm having hopes for this title. |
 |
| Wow, this time it's French Anime huh? Well, I'm gonna keep this one in mind |
 |
| Seiji Kishi is an instant PTW to me. |
 |
| Heard its very shounen-like, hope it won't be filled with too many clichés. The author said one piece is his favorite so I'm pretty excited |
 |
| This definitely looks interesting,mainly because I want to see some variety in an anime with a fantasy setting. Have mixed feelings regarding the stuff,tho,but it could work out well. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Something from the old Europe sounds good, that means we will be watching french cartoons |
    |
| if nothing else, the girl's hair look cool haha think i'll at least check it |
favorite "new girls" from fall <3 (lol i only watched these) ... click sig for older seasons  |
| The visual looks pretty good Will give it a try |
| only heard this is really similir with battle shounen in a good way... any original reader here? |

HaXXspetten said: Is this the first step for anime to start going global and seek world domination? :o Well, we already had a French collab at least once and it turned out pretty good. |
| Not changing this signature until P.A. Works announces 2nd season of Shirobako. |
| This looks very interesting, I will definitely watch it. |
 |
| I hope it will be a fun adventure. But I have not yet been impressed by Lerche though to say the least. Girl look cute though. |
| >manfra adaptation oui oui monsieur |
 |
| Hopefully it's not just Ao no Exorcist. |
 |
| >French comic And i thought it can't get worse |
 |
| FINALLEMENT, J'AI ATTENDU POUR CELA DEPUIS QUE RADIANT EST SORTI SUR LE MARCHÉ!!!!!!!! (TROP D'ÉMOTIONS DANS MA TÊTE EN CE MOMENT!!!!!!!!) |
   |
| Nice to see that it ended up being true, and with a competent staff as a bonus which surprises me. I really enjoyed AssClass overall so im pretty happy with this choice of staff ! (Even tho Seiji Kishi can be pretty mixed) |
 |
| Why do I feel like people act like it was the first western adaptation into anime??? Nonetheless, I met the original creator back in 2013 at a manga convention in montreal and I have to say that his drawings are totally japanese-like. I read the first volume and it feels really like reading a manga. |
| Looks predictable carbon-copy came from a third-rate shiny degradable material |

 "Think about that glowing dust That destroys the night sky's dream of Just being nothing"--  -- |
Being immune to them, Seth wants to become a Hunter and fight the Nemesis Gon, chill, Neferpitou did nothing wrong. |
| Japan is short on shounen clichefests to adapt? Seriously? |
 |
| Finally the superior EU comics are getting animated. Very looking forward to this combo, I hope they don't fuck it up. |

| YES THE REVOLUTION HAS BEGUN!!! FINALLY THE INDUSTRY IS BRANCHING OUT TO MORE SOURCES!! This anime might suck major ass but it's still a step in the right direction |
Jerking off to superior Nippon, anything that isn't from Nippon must be fucking shit right? |
| Only part that sounds interesting to me about this is 'French comic'. But hey, France has surprised me with quite a bit of good quality media. Could be worth checking out. |
| wow that sounds generic as fuck |

Freestyleking5x2 said: Its not about the artstyle but the fact that they're not made in japan and not made for a japanese audience while this one is actually made in japan, for japan.Quick question if castlevania and boondocks are not classified as anime even though the art style is just like any other anime what makes this an anime (when asked why castlevania wasnt an anime people said it wasnt made in japan) im fairly new to anime can someone explain this logic Im confused |

| The poster image looks interesting. PTWing |
| Cool, we needed an example that bland shit anime doesn't come only from terrible LN source material. under the harsh scrutiny of the Inquisition. And that not only nips can't be bothered to know the first thing about European history.Nyah_Chan said: Wouldn't a step in the right direction be making a good anime instead of one that sucks just based on something different than usual?This anime might suck major ass but it's still a step in the right direction |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| Also original reader, gonna be brief and just reply to all those who think this is the newest Black Clover which is just a copy of every shonen and so on. Don't worry, it's not half bad, it's actually a very well done shonen, even by being exactly what you'd expect from a shonen. Also don't focus too much on the "french" point, the comic itself's got nothing french, it's just french because the author is. |
| Ruka desu. |

So whether the anime is good or bad, the fact that they even tried is a step forward |
| That's cool and i hope this will be way better than Oban Star Racers. |

| First Chinese anime and now French? Good. Anime is getting more globalised. |

Taste in anime does not make you a better person. Totally agree! |
