The anime adaptation of the Why Does Nobody Remember Me in This World? (Naze Boku no Sekai wo Dare mo Oboeteinai no ka?) light novel series has revealed its main cast and staff lineup, as well as a teaser visual.
Tatsuma Minamikawa (Pon no Michi, The Vexations of a Shut-In Vampire Princess) is directing the series at Project No.9 with series composition from Satoru Sugisawa (Love After World Domination). Hiromi Katou (The Kingdoms of Ruin) is the character designer.
The cast includes Shouya Chiba as Kai, Kana Ichinose as Rinne, and Haruka Shiraishi as Jeanne.
Why Does Nobody Remember Me in This World? is based on the light novel series published under KADOKAWA’s MF Bunko J label. Written by Our Last Crusade or the Rise of a New World‘s Kei Sazane and illustrated by Neco, it ran from 2017 to 2020 with nine volumes. The light novels have inspired a manga adaptation drawn by Arikan.
Bookwalker Global describes the manga as:
War between the five races on earth – the humans, the “Demonic Race”, the “Wild God Race”, the “Spirit Race” and the “Phantom Beast Race”- has ended in the victory of humans.
It is said that “Prophet Sid” had sealed the other four races in the black pyramid now called “Crypts”.
Kai’s job is to watch the crypts and make sure that there is no change. He is also training to save humans when the other races break the seal and come back to this world.
The crypts looked quiet today…but after Kai felt the world bending in front of his eye…everything changed.
“World Rebirth” was activated…!!
Now Kai is in a totally different world where no one knows him. But he remembers everyone!
