The third season's new opening theme song "Compass" by Void_Chords feat. MindaRyn, and new ending theme song "Metamorphosis" by iScream debuted in the 10th episode on December 23.
The first season of the anime premiered in July 2019. Funimation streamed the series with both English subtitles and a dub. The second season premiered in January 2022. Funimation also streamed the anime.
Funimation described the story:
Hajime Nagumo and his high school class are suddenly summoned to a fantastical land as heroes. But while most of his classmates have powerful stats and abilities, Hajime does not. Underappreciated and unprepared, he tumbles into the depths of a monster-infested dungeon where voracity and sacrifice are his only options. To thrive in this savage world, he'll have no choice but to welcome the abyss.
