Assassins Pride Anime – Release Date, Posters & Trailers

Hey guys, we have a new fantasy anime coming this October as part of the fall 2019 anime lineup and that is no other than Assassins Pride. The anime is the new project of EMT Squared this year and based on the available trailers, it’s quite promising though I just wish it won’t be one of those disappointing anime shows which only great trailers but turns out to be a train wreck when it aired. Nonetheless, I have high hopes for Assassins Pride TV anime adaptation especially with the fact that its source material, Assassin's Pride light novel series is well-received.

In anticipation with Assassin's Pride release on October 10, 2019, we have here some of the details that we thought may help you understand its story including its synopsis as follows:

A world where nobles with the ability of mana have a duty to protect humanity. A unique girl Merida Angel who does not have mana while a nobleman who attends a training school for talents. In order to find out her talent, Coufain-Vampir is dispatched as a tutor. "If her old defunct, assassination to" shouldering the task of - -. Kuhfa tries to make a cruel decision for Merida, whose ability continues to make unrelenting efforts in all societies. "Let's not leave my life to me." Assassin and not an assassin teacher assassin teacher Pride (Pride), show the value of a girl to the world! (Source: assassinspride-anime.com)
