The light novel Hime Kishi-sama no Himo ( The Kept Man of the Princess Knight ), by author Tōru Shirogane , had its anime adaptation announced this Sunday (16).

Therefore, the direction is by Kumano Chihiro (Unnamed Memory, MobuSeka) at Blade Studio. Script by Deko Akao and character design by Hisao Ishi i.

Synopsis Hime Kishi-sama no Himo:

Matthew is just another parasite in the chaotic dungeon town of Gray Neighbor. Rumor has it he's lazy and weak, spending all the money he receives from his protector, the knight princess Arwin, on gambling and drinking. At least, that's what they say. But the truth is, no one in this town knows what he really is—a ruthless protector who operates in the shadows and will do whatever it takes for his mistress's sake. A story that blends loyalty, secrets, and action, showing that appearances can be deceiving, especially in a place as dangerous and unpredictable as Gray Neighbor.

Therefore, Tōru Shirogane is writing the Japanese light novel, and Saki Mashima is illustrating it. ASCII Media Works began publishing the novel in February 2022 under their Dengeki Bunko imprint. Additionally, in September 2022, a manga adaptation, illustrated by Keyyang, began serialization on Kadokawa's ComicWalker website.
