After the successful screening of “Masamune-kun’s Revenge Season 2,” and “Level One Demon Lord and One Room Hero” in the 2023 Summer Season, animation studio “SILVER LINK” is returning this Fall Season with the anime adaptation of “Ragna Crimson.”
And just like Frieren, this series will also get a special first episode. “Ragna Crimson” first episode will be a 60-minute special.
Animation Studio “SILVER LINK” has animated some famous anime series, which include “The Misfit of Demon King Academy” and “BOFURI.” This series is also one of the most anticipated anime series of Fall 2023.
Plot of “Ragna Crimson”
“Ragna Crimson” anime is set in a world ruled by powerful mythical creatures named “Dragons.”
Anyone foolish enough to challenge these majestic creatures must possess immense strength and determination.
In such people lies Ragna, a young dragon hunter. He partners with a suspicious person named Crimson, whose motivation to defeat these dragons is nothing good.
But as Ragna and Crimson have the same aim of taking down these dragons, they partner up.
So follows the story of these enthusiastic dragon hunters as they face dragons daily until they beat the strongest ones!
Anticipation Amongst The Fandom
“Ragna Crimson” is adapted from the action-fantasy manga series of the same name, written & illustrated by Kobayashi Daiki.
Although the author has other notable works like “Sky Blue,” “Ragna Crimson” stands as his crowning achievement.
The manga series has 12 volumes released so far, and 10 of these volumes are officially translated into English by “Square Enix.”
“Ragna Crimson” follows the Shounen genres like action and fantasy, so you can expect it to be like “Black Clover” or “Naruto.” So, this series is definitely to look forward to.
