Master of Ragnarok & Blesser of Einherjar Anime's English-Subtitled Teaser Streamed

Crunchyroll began streaming an English-subtitled teaser for The Master of Ragnarok & Blesser of Einherjar, the anime adaptation of Seiichi Takayama and Yukisan's Hyakuren no Haō to Seiyaku no Valkyria light novel series, on Tuesday.

The anime will premiere on July 7. Crunchyroll will stream the series, as it is a Crunchyroll co-production title.

J-Novel Club licensed the novels and is publishing them digitally. The publisher describes the story:

Some urban legends are best left untested! Yuuto Suoh gets more than he bargained for when he joins his childhood friend Mitsuki Shimoya in testing out an urban legend. When he uses his phone to take a picture of himself with the local shrine's divine mirror, he is whisked off into another world – one heavily steeped in the lore of the old Norse myths. Using his knowledge gained from school and from his solar-powered smartphone, he has the chance to bring the Wolf Clan, the same people who cared for him, to prominence, all while earning the adoration of a group of magic-wielding warrior maidens known as the Einherjar.

Kōsuke Kobayashi (Idol Time PriPara, Alice or Alice) is directing the anime at EMT Squared. Natsuko Takahashi (ATASHIn'CHI, Romeo × Juliet, Love Tyrant) is in charge of the series scripts. Mariko Ito (Log Horizon, ViVid Strike!, Love Tyrant) is adapting the character designs for animation, and is also credited as chief animation director alongside Miyako Yatsu (Say, "I Love You"., Flowers of Evil, DIVE!!).

Aya Uchida, who plays Mitsuki in the anime, will perform the anime's opening theme song, and petit milady will perform the ending theme song.
