Netflix Streams Skeleton Knight in Another World Anime in India

Netflix began streaming the television anime of Ennki Hakari's Skeleton Knight in Another World (Gaikotsu Kishi-sama, Tadaima Isekai e Odekakechū) light novel series on in India on Friday.

The anime premiered in Japan on April 7. Muse Asia streamed the anime in India as it aired in Japan and describes its story:

Arc awakes and finds that he has been thrown into another world in the form of the game character he used to play in MMORPG. His character was a "skeleton knight" that looked like a skeleton clad in full-body armour. ──If people find out, they will think he is a monster and try to kill him! Arc decides to keep a low profile and spend his time as a mercenary. However, he was not the sort of man who could let evil run rampant in front of his eyes! An isekai fantasy about a skeleton knight who "make a world a better place", selflessly, is here!

Katsumi Ono (Hypnosis Mic -Division Rap Battle- Rhyme Anima, Hataraki Man, Girly Air Force, Senki Zesshō Symphogear sequels) directed the anime at Studio KAI and HORNETS, and Takeshi Kikuchi (Night Wizard The Animation, Ragnastrike Angels) supervised the series scripts. Tōru Imanishi (Girly Air Force, Super Cub, WorldEnd) designed the characters based on the original novel illustrations by KeG. The artists eba and Tsubasa Ito (Iwa-Kakeru! -Sport Climbing Girls-, The Price of Smiles) composed the music.

Seven Seas Entertainment is publishing the light novel series and its manga adaptation in English.

Ennki Hakari launched the novels on the Shōsetsuka ni Narō (Let's be Novelists) website in October 2014, and Overlap began publishing series in print with illustrations by KeG in June 2015. Akira Sawano (A Bridge to the Starry Skies character design) launched a manga adaptation on Overlap's Comic Gardo website in February 2017.
