Uncle from Another World Anime Gets Fired Up in Key Visual!
Hotondoshindeiru's isekai comedy manga Uncle from Another World is getting the anime treatment, finally answering the question of what happens when your uncle wakes up from a coma with magical powers. With that in mind, the first key visual recently made its way online and is suitably fired up for the occasion.
There isn't much in the way of info on the anime just yet, so we'll have to wait for more details. For now, here's a closer look at the powerful piece of art.
Yen Press publishes the manga in English and describes it like so:
W E L C O M E T O T H E N E X T W O R L D
Seventeen years ago, Takafumi’s uncle fell into a coma, but now he’s back like a man risen from his grave. Soon, Takafumi discovers two bizarre things: His uncle treasures video games above all else, and, while comatose, he was actually transported to another world as some heroic guardian! Now, not only does Takafumi have to room with an uncle who is literally magical, he also has to catch the guy up on two decades of history—smartphones, high-speed internet, modern anime tropes…and the traumatic outcome of the ’90s console war!
